Last week's winter storm turned Texas State into an icy mess. Mandy Escobedo has
more on this Bobcat Update.

Record breaking low temperatures, high winds and freezing rain turned Texas
State into a winter wonderland last week, and the threat of the iced over roads
and blackouts leaving campus buildings without power forced the university to
shut down. Campus residents were advised to stay in their dormitories.

Texas State relied on social media such as Facebook and e-mail to alert students
on the weather conditions and changing class schedules. Most students,
especially commuters, found these alerts helpful.

Although the ice has long since melted, the desire to stay warm lingers on. Some
students find a warm cup of coffee fills the bill. Others just want a break from
the chilly winds.

The cold blast has been a hard adjustment from the usually beautiful San Marcos
weather and has left the student body anticipating Spring Break more then ever
before. For Bobcat Update, I'm Mandy Escobedo.
