6 inches of snowfall throughout the day Thursday.
Precipitation totals during the record-setting weeklong event were not immediately available from the National Weather Serviceâs office at New Braunfels Regional Airport.
For most of Thursday, city, county and state authorities asked drivers to stay home as winds gusted up to 30 mph and made travel conditions difficult on nearly all thoroughfares linking to and from the city.Â
For the fourth straight day after Mondayâs Presidentâs Day holiday, all schools, city and county facilities will remain closed Friday following yet another night of subfreezing temperatures that will cause melted precipitation to re-ice and endanger early morning travel.
