Hi can you give me some more information about the climate in Texas? 
 Hello I sure can. Texas-sized is an expression that can be used in two ways, either to describe something that is about the size of the U.S. state of Texas, or to describe something that is large compared to other objects of its type. Snow falls multiple times each winter in the Panhandle and mountainous area of West Texas, once or twice a year in North Texas, and once every few years in Central and East Texas. 
 Great anything else on climate? 
 The Panhandle of the state has colder winters than North Texas, while the Gulf Coast has mild winters. El Paso, on the western end of the state averages 8.7 in of annual rainfall, while parts of southeast Texas average as much as 64 in per year. 
 Does it state which cities get snow? 
 Snow falls south of San Antonio or on the coast in rare circumstances only. 
 Cool beans. Can you tell me about Texas etymology? 
 I sure can. The Mission San Francisco de los Tejas was completed near the Hasinai village of Nabedaches in May 1690, in what is now Houston County, East Texas. 
 Please tell me more. 
 Sure thing! The name Texas, based on the Caddo word taysha "friend" was applied, in the spelling Tejas or Texas, by the Spanish to the Caddo themselves, specifically the Hasinai Confederacy, the final s representing the Spanish plural. Nuevo Reino de Filipinas (which is also known as the new kingdom of the Phillippines) or as provincia de los Tejas , later also provincia de Texas. 
 Great information. Anything else regarding etymology? 
 Yes! During Spanish colonial rule, in the 18th century, the area was known as Nuevas Filipinas. Alternative etymologies of the name advanced in the late 19th century connected the Spanish tejac rooftile, the plural tejas being used to designate indigenous Puebelo settlements. 
 Thank you for all of the helpful information! 
 You're so welcome!
