You can't really generalize a phase of the AO to the weather in Texas, and the neutral "phase" is especially uninteresting. Besides, the AO oscillates frequently enough that it's never neutral for too long.

The North Pole is a land mass as big as Texas true or false?

False, It is not even a land mass, it is an ocean. The North Pole is a point which happens to fall in the Arctic Ocean. It can be reached by travelling over the pack ice of the Arctic Ice Sheet which covers the Arctic ocean.


How does the Arctic Oscillation cause snow?

The Arctic Oscillation describes a relationship between pressure fields in the Arctic which governs atmospheric mass distribution around the hemisphere. Central to it is its Polar Vortex, mostly in the stratosphere, that is usually manifested as strong easterly winds around the North Pole. In the negative phase of the AO, the vortex is weakened and this allows a more meridional flow - meaning more cold Arctic air can slide south, invading the lower latitudes. For different (dynamical) reasons, this more high-amplitude pattern is more conducive to the development and amplification of cyclones in Eastern North America and Western Europe. That's why it tends to be colder and snowier in these phases of the AO in these locations. Check out the related link for the standard diagram of the negative vs. positive phases.
