What to know about Houston Weekend Snow
Read full article: What to know about Houston Weekend SnowSnow is possible this weekend, but getting it in Houston will be a tall order! Houston, TX – The idea of a winter Sunday Snow-prise is all the buzz right now and so let’s start with just how we end up getting snow, sleet, freezing rain and plain, cold rain. You can see that if snow makes it all the way to the ground then it encounters no wedge of warm air and stays as snow. More warm air will turn the snow to rain which may refreeze at the surface (think bridges and overpasses especially) which is freezing rain, or ice. Obviously, the farther north from Houston has the best chance for actual snow because it will be colder.
