Winter storm Enzo hit the Houston area overnight, with inches of snow falling over the city. In the early Tuesday morning, with the city quiet, people walked around in the snowfall to witness the rare snow day. Later in the day, parks like Tinsley at Buffalo Bayou and Hermann Park became hot spots for sledding and playing.
Here is how the city looked and how Houstonians enjoyed the day despite the cold temperatures.
