The Texas snow storm of 2025 was a major winter storm that affected the U.S. state of Texas from February 12 to 19, 2025. The storm brought heavy snow, freezing rain, and record-low temperatures to the state, causing widespread power outages, travel disruptions, and at least 150 deaths.
The storm was the result of a combination of factors, including a cold front from the north and a warm front from the Gulf of Mexico. The storm intensified as it moved across Texas, and by February 14, it had dumped more than a foot of snow on many parts of the state. The snow was accompanied by freezing rain, which made travel extremely hazardous. The storm also caused widespread power outages, as ice and snow brought down power lines. At the peak of the storm, more than 4 million Texans were without power.
