Texas/New Mexico/Louisiana/Mexico Obs And Discussion Thread Part 6

The upper low has slowed its progression E across Central Texas and should begin to pivot to a more negative tilt which may allow for areas receiving sleet and snow to persist into the mid morning hours.

Yeah, you kind of start to see that on the DFW radar, Denton and Collin County might be getting a last second save (for those just wanting to see accumulating snow)

[cheese007]

Snow in Richardson! Big flakes too! But will it stick?

[aggiegeog]

Maybe a quarter inch so far from sleet and snow. Should become all snow soon as the upper low approaches.

Pretty much just like that November Sunday night here... Barely enough to call flurries... Guess to see snow I'll have to move back home to Illinois.. UGHHH might as well write off Friday too, something will happen to bust that one too... Might as wel look to storm season in my book

[Srain]

HGX extends Winter Weather Advisory for Houston, Madison and Trinity Counties until 1:00PM CST.

Heavier snow reported at Love Field. No accumulation at this time.

[Srain]

Light snow reported in Schwertner (Williamson County) Central TX.

[bubba hotep]

Looks like a banding might be trying to setup right across Dallas and Collin counties, rates are picking up here, might actually pass an inch here pretty soon 

[Roy]

Snowing heavier than earlier now in North Fort Worth/Watauga area. Coming down quickly with some white covering the ground. At least seeing some snow out the windows.

 

Edit 5 mins later....and it's over.

I'm worried about it melting on contact. We've had a good bit of snow but little accumulation so far

[Srain]

Light snow/sleet mix reported across portions of Northern SE TX at this time. No accumulation.

 

[aggiegeog]

Been sleeting with some snow for an hour and already have half an inch so 3"+ total seems reasonable here. Roads are covered.

[ams30721us]

HUGE snowflakes in Tyler right now!

[Srain]

Report of wet snow in Huntsville.

[Srain]

Report of light snow in Travis County (Mopac @ 360). No accumulation.

[Srain]

Report of light snow in Bertram (Travis County). No accumulation.

My sister just outside of Longview reported massive flakes about 25 minutes ago and now down to smaller flakes but coming down nicely still.

[canderson]

She just sent me this photo from Longview:

OK now. How about Friday snow?

[aggiegeog]

We have about an inch of snow. It has turned into a steady fluffy snow. Should end up with 1.5-2".

[bubba hotep]

A little teaser from FWD, but I won't get NAM'ed again!

 

WE WILL BE TURNING OUR ATTENTION THIS AFTERNOON TO THE FORECAST
FOR TOMORROW THROUGH SATURDAY...AS IT APPEARS WINTER WEATHER IS
NOT OVER JUST YET.

[Roy]

Friday night could be interesting, but it just looks like a little pitiful snow to me as of right now...maybe up to an inch. Didn't even get that this time. It's already melted off.

[bubba hotep]

Why not, it's bound to be right at some point.  Some of the accumulation south and east of DFW is from this morning:

Saw nothing but cold rain in southern Bryan where I was working this morning. Going to class now and the sun has come out, warming us up about 10*F already. I even saw some summer-style dry convection coming off some of the roadways for a bit.

Had a good 1-2 here in downtown Tyler. Very nice and slushy looking. Perfect snowball and snowmen stuff!

that's kinda of unbelievable

[bubba hotep]

I can ground truth this for Collin County for the 1" area:

Here we go again, moisture looks meager at this point...

 

[cheese007]

So I can plan on cold rain through Sunday?
