We do get a bit of snow up in the panhandle. But the beauty of the winter season here in Texas is that it's usually dry and your typical daily high doesn't drop below forty degrees (fahrenheit). Although we can get some hard freezes overnight leaving black ice on the bridges, and that when it's a good idea to stay off the roads even if you DO have a four-wheel drive.
Really, the greatest thing about Texas in Winter is heading down to Padre Island for some fishing and wading. The Gulf Coastal Current keeps the water down there a balmy eighty degrees, so even when it's forty outside there's still plenty of pleasure to be had.
