On January 12-13, 1985, a strange thing happened in San Antonio. Really strange.

The city was covered by more than a foot of snow, an all-time record.

It is a rare sight to see any snow around San Antonio, and this blanket of white covered everything outside.

San Antonio recorded 13.5 inches of snowfall from the storm.
