What's that white stuff on the ground?

When I woke up this morning I saw something unusual for central Texas. Can someone tell me what these are:



I found it funny, so I snapped a shot. Later got shots of my roommate playing in the snow. Yep that's right, we had snow flurries today too - big fluffy ones - and there as even some accumulation.


Every few years or so, we see actual winter weather and everything shuts down. I have no problem staying off the road in winter weather here. Although I grew up driving in it, I don't like being on the road with those who didn't.


Sunday morning I was sitting in church, and during the announcements, they said that the office would be closed and all church events on Monday would be cancelled due to immenent weather. The staff member who was giving the announcements made a comment that he was sure that those of us who grew up in more northern areas were laughing at the Texans - he was right. I was lauging as was my friend Derek who grew up in Michigan.


The only question left is whether or not I'll have to go to work tomorrow.
