Snowmen, baseball and dogs’ first snow. How Texas reacted to #Snowmageddon2021
Save your condescension, Northerners.
No matter how normal it is to you, Texas doesn’t often see the kind of snow event we had Sunday.
(And there’s more coming, apparently.)
So forgive us for helping #Snowmageddon2021 trend on the Internet and celebrating the rarity with our social media posts showing our dogs prancing around in their first snow, our kids building their first snowmen, and throwing their first snowball.
In fact, we even posted peaceful images of our neighborhoods covered in perfectly pristine snow, unmarred by tire tracks or footsteps.

I live in Central Texas so I don't have to deal with cold winters. Now we've had snow in January and snow in February. Mother Nature must be really mad at us. I blame @tedcruz and @JohnCornyn. #Snowmageddon2021 pic.twitter.com/MdaFJsksGS

All you peeps up north couldn’t handle our 90+ degree spring nights, so don’t judge us when we are a little panicky when it’s freezing in Texas #Snowmageddon2021 #TexasFreeze pic.twitter.com/QGex4RcnfK

Lots of people had the same idea.
I grew up in TX and worked in NM for about 3 years. It would snow like this around the mountains.
I was in awe the first time I saw it.
NEVER expected to see something similar in North Texas. pic.twitter.com/LgzIglBTF0
