Houston snow videos

I came across 2 very cool videos on Youtube today showing the Houston snowfall of 1960 and one of the snowfalls from 1973...

Thanks for post EWG, sure brings back a lot of memories. Forwarded to my Mom. She dug out photos of me in the 1960 event and we're looking for photos from 1973.

Thanks EWG. That brings back memories. Goodness. Missing school in 1973. Snowing not once, but several times. We have pictures of my dad getting snow off of the roof of our house in La Marque. He was doing it to make ice cream. Well my mother, with her Instamatic 110, cut half of head off. Funny stuff. Anyway, thanks

Interesting news footage during a Houston snow/ice storm back in the 1981-1982 timeframe:

I remember it snowed in December of 1989 and February of 1994. 1989 was cold.
