[DFW Stormwatcher]

It's now snowing in grayson county with a slight mix of sleet.

In what part of Grayson County do you live?

[SouthernMet]

Looking at specific temperature trends this hour, it appears the colder air is moving southwest gradually, northeast of a line from Bowie, to Denton, through Plano to Terrell.

Along the Red River, Sherman/Denision are at 33/34 with decent precip. Gainesville at 35 with decent clip of precip and Bonham at 37.

EDIT: CONFIRMED reports of all snow in Wolfe City and Pilot Point. Snow on the ground in Ridgeway just north of Commerce/Greenville. And Snow/Sleet/Light rain mix in Denton.

It was 38 when I checked here in Rockwall around 7am. It's dropped to 35 less than 1.5 hours later. Maybe the transition will start in a couple hours here.

Caddo Mills Heavy Snow.. accumulation hopkins county..I'll keep reports coming

[txagwxman]

GFS soundings a little too warm for DFW, NAM still close, but leaning with reality. Go East.

Is there a site you can look at to see reports?

IMO it's just a matter of time for Rockwall County should be less than "a couple of hours"

[kb75007]

looks like the temps are slowing dropping. Will it need to be right at 32 to snow or what does it need to get down to?

[SouthernMet]

For Collin, Cooke, Denton, Fannin, Grayson, Hopkins, and Hunt counties areas of your counties are seeing snow atm.

[kb75007]

how come snow if falling in places but it doesnt show on the radar?

[PineyWoods]

32.9° here in south Tyler with mostly cold rain and some light sleet every now and then. Wonder if the precip will be out of here by the time the column cools?

[SouthernMet]

how come snow if falling in places but it doesnt show on the radar?

Because its not quite 32 degrees at the surface at some of those places yet.

Absolutely not...I have seen snow flakes at 43F before. But in this instance it seems like 35F would be all snow. Again, NAM is still cold enough for DFW, GFS is not. So wait-and-see.
