Its a Winter Wonderland in Houston, Texas

It’s a winter wonderland here in Houston Texas this morning. Houstonians across the metro area are waking up to white yards and slick streets after an overnight dusting of snow. The first reports of light snow came late Thursday in Katy, Spring and The Woodlands as near-freezing weather blew through the region. The winter weather produced just enough for a few snowballs or maybe even a small snowman.

On average, a snow event like this in Houston and the gulf coast happens only once every 20 years. Houston gets about one snowfall every 10 years. The odds are not with us that we will have snow this winter season, let alone on Christmas morning. However, things are about to get quite cold here with a strong cold front this Thursday and a freeze for the northern counties this weekend.

All of us here at SERVPRO of Katy/Cypress want to remind all Houstonians about the small dangers of snow fall, even at a minor level. Due to the overnight freeze, Houstonians are waking up to frozen busted pipes and cracked windows. These are a few our least favorite things. There is nothing to worry about, because SERVPRO of Katy/Cypress is always here for the people of this great city of ours.
