San Antonio's 13.5 inch Record Snowfall in 1985

[nightfrog65]

I've visited San Antonio in mid-October, and it was till above 90 degrees. Snow like this must be the northern equivalent of a massive blizzard.

I was conceived when my parents where snowed in. It matched me being born in October. This is so cool. I hope my parents had some fun too.

WOW i remember this...I was living in Dallas and was around 10years old at the time!

I remember watching the weather channel...half of texas was covered of snow.

[Gotostep2]

I wish I was around when snow came to San Antonio. I have never seen the place covered with snow b4. I wish I was born in the 70s or early 80s so I could have seen it.

[knowsthatknowledge]

man, i remember this- i was 7 years old. i lived right off old highway 90 at that time-man that was fun!! the first time i ever saw snow.

I lived in San Antonio during this snow! I was 14, and I still have a cassette tape of the radio deejays talking about how the city was shut down by the snow. I still remember crunching through the snow up Evers Rd., throwing snowballs at cars...sigh...what a wild winter!

Thanks for the great blast from the past!!!

I hate cold with a passion and I was born in 1984 in San Antonio (not far from Sea World). God knows this and gave me over a foot of snow to screw with me

Great vid though. I do miss snow sometimes.

[dimebagdc]

The day it started snowing here in san antonio, My father proposed to my mother. it was already planned, but that's just so sweet how it turned out.

[TheRnqa]

First time I ever saw snowfall though I've seen snow on the ground before in the mts. os So. Cal. It was so cool!

[ladyi7609]

I totally remember this!! I was 5 and living just north of downtown S.A., and I believe I was due to report back to school the week this occurred but obv everything was shut down so I couldn't; Mom and I stayed at/close to home while Dad braved the odd trip out in his van (which looked a lot like the van in this video) to the nearby Handy Andy for groceries and Ace Hardware for other supplies I built my one and only snowman that year. Ah, memories.

[mlphotovideo]

Yes, it was a fun time! Maybe with this being an El Nino winter, we will finally see more snow for San Antonio again!

[ajcos]

That's Awesome

[SovietSunrise]

I didn't even exist and still lived in a wonderful communist worker's "paradise", although we had snow like this all the time there.

Now I live in San Antonio and wish we got crazy snow like this!! I know for sure that I would have as much fun as you guys did!

Thanks for making the video and sharing it with us!!

[JPalm50]

Haha I thought that looked familiar. I was born that year. Thanks for posting, its pretty crazy to see this knowing that I was likely still in the womb about 6 miles in town from there.

[XOXOHopeFaithXOXO]

:-( i wish it would snow again... i wasnt alive back then... sadness

[mlphotovideo]

Hang in there...if we can get rid of the La Nina pattern this year, hopefully we will get more moisture next winter and have a chance for snow.

[Back21987]

What a fun weekend it was, I wish it would happen again!

[Terence1999]

Ahh the memories! Ny son was born on January 15 of that year and all the roads were closed.

Even the doctor didn't come to deliver him!

[rztexas]

I remember that well, I was living in Castroville and took over 100 photos in two days. Maybe we'll get snow again??

[JPalm50]

That looks like it could be out by circle A am I right?

[mlphotovideo]

Yes! Very good. 13802 to be exact.

[Farside8091]

This is a great video! I lived at Wurzbach and I-10 during that time. The whole city shut down. LOL Thanks for posting this. I've been looking for photos/video of the '85 snow for a while but there aren't that many images out there.

[mlphotovideo]

Glad you enjoyed it...wish the video was a little better, without the "rainbow" effect. Hopefully we will see another snowfall of at least a few inches one of these winters!

[DrD0llaz]

Holy crap i always wanted to see what the 1985 snow event looked like, thx

[mlphotovideo]

KSAT 12 might be using this footage in the next month or so. Maybe they can get rid of the rainbow effect.

[way2muchNFO]
