I assume you weren't here in 1985 when it snowed for 2 days straight. We accumulated 16 inches. And stupid me went to an NCLEX review class that they refused to cancel at Incarnate Word. When I got out of class at around 1 pm, there was 6 inches on the ground. My parents lived over near the airport. It took me hours to get home. My car was doing donuts the whole way home. Every single business was closed on San Pedro. I got home around 4.

It was just awful and very scary. I'm from Wisconsin, but this was the scariest thing.
