It's Always Sunny Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 Texas expecting widespread snow beginning today and extending into tomorrow. Feeling pretty good about seeing DFW's ~6 yr >=1" snow drought being broken tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
It's Always Sunny Posted January 9, 2021 Author Share Posted January 9, 2021 12Z coming in a little higher for DFW. Counties SW of Metroplex looking better as well. These WeatherBell maps show different (higher) amounts than COD does anyone know what that's about? I'm guessing it's a resolution thing with their graphical output? EDIT: These amounts are high imo so I think it's a WeatherBell thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
It's Always Sunny Posted January 9, 2021 Author Share Posted January 9, 2021 HREF has 2-4" for DFW which I think is in the realm of possibility if that band sets up further N. I'd lean more towards 2" though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
It's Always Sunny Posted January 10, 2021 Author Share Posted January 10, 2021 12Z FWD sounding. Still some dry air to be worked out but temps aloft looking good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheese007 Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 Excited to see what failure mode we get today. TV mets are gung-ho on this which makes me even more pessimistic lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vwgrrc Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 Am i right this seems a little more aggressive than HRRR indicated? HRRR says all rain for Denton and Collin since last night. But we see a good area of now in both. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TXHawk88 Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 It’s snowing in Grand Prairie, I feel confident we might pull up 1-2 inches here, radar looks decent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhirlingWx Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 I'd settle for an inch up here near Murphy, TX. Not sure how feasible it is, still waiting for the atmosphere to moisten up enough over here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheese007 Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 Big question is how far north does it get? Wouldn't be shocked if it stays dry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aggiegeog Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 Reports west of I-35 def are encouraging but I'm keeping my expectations at 2 or 3 inches between 6pm and midnight. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheese007 Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 Well some wintry precip did find its way up here! Now the real question: does it peter out or pickup and stick? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where you are I think up to 1" is possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vwgrrc Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 SW Denton county started. Looks like NAM is better than HRRR on this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWineman Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 I’m in northwest Tarrant and it’s snowing but not at a fast enough clip to start accumulating. At least we haven’t seen it switch back to rain here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhirlingWx Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 Southern Collin County, and also getting flakes here. It can't accumulate at this rate either but it's better than whatever that weak stuff was (here) last January Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vwgrrc Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 SE Denton close to Collin county snowing heavily. Starting to see accumulation on roof Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheese007 Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 TV Mets and NWS still seem to be bullish on accumulations for whatever it's worth. Still a bit skeptical but I was wrong about the snow... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhirlingWx Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 Might actually accumulate on the grass at this rate. Moderate snow still falling but melting on pavement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jestocost Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 Big fat flakes. Light, light accumulation E Plano. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
