Snow blanketed Houston on this day in 1960. And then it didn t snow for another decade.
The anniversary comes on the cusp of a potentially record-breaking cold snap, which is expected to bring varying forms of wintery precipitation to Southeast Texas. The primary threat for snow is Sunday through Monday, according to the National Weather Service.
But if we take a look back to 1960, the white stuff made Houston look like a postcard.
Traffic cops ushering drivers in snow-covered cars. Snowmen towering over their creators. It even snowed a few inches in Galveston, according to meteorologists.
Winter is coming (again), Houston

Houston will be full of cold hearts this Valentine s Day.
How cold? High temperatures in H-Town could be in the 20s by early next week if conditions are just right.
There s still a lot of uncertainty about how chilly we ll get, or if we ll see any snow wintery precipitation. But here s where we stand, as of Tuesday s National Weather Service forecast:
A cold front will make its way through Southeast Texas by Wednesday. It moved in slower than meteorologists expected, which is why Tuesday morning s fog was so intense.
You can expect showers (and maybe some thunderstorms) to pop up around Houston starting Tuesday afternoon.
