sahen Posted December 11, 2008 Report Share Posted December 11, 2008 in Liberty we had about 6-8 inches of snow in the yard when i got up to go to work this morning (around 6:30)....on my way to work Liberty to Baytown everything but the roads (thank god) were covered with about 6 inches of snow atleast...it was pretty cool to see...only one wreck that i ran across on the trinity river bridge on 90, some guy had spun out and hit the concrete barrier...no one else was involved and the guy looked fine... on a side note, glad i dont live in houston itself, it took most people until after lunch to get to baytown for work out here since every major highway was closed cause of a bridge or a wreck to get here..

sox61fan Posted December 11, 2008 Report Share Posted December 11, 2008 Dont forget the snow in Galveston was also on Christmas Day. A White Christmas on the beach. My grandparents had the picture on their Christmas cards the next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YankeeDawg Posted December 13, 2008 Report Share Posted December 13, 2008 COOP...when is our next blizzard scheduled to get here. I' need to get me some snow ski gear and maybe a snowboard too. I heard those I-10 overpasses are awesome runs. ;D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
