new to this board...

Snow is falling in SW Arlington right now...not sticking to anything as of yet...

I recognize that handle.

Hook 'em

whats sweet about all this is that it's the 3rd snow event this December, that hasn't happened since 76/77

Is there any correlation between number of ice/snow events and colder than average temps with the likelihood of more severe storms in the spring (in strength and number) ??

I am asking because I would guess that cold air aloft persisting well into the spring would bring more instability.....

Snow/Rain Mix at the Tollway @ 635. Dallas.

Yup, LonghornJones.

that intellicast radar posted earlier has been very accurate throughout the day...which means Waco is on the verge of snow!!

Changed over to all snow by the airport. Wet flakes, would be good snowmen making type should it stick as compared to last week's lol

[TexasStorm]

Downtown Dallas..... rain

[AggieSpirit]

The Mt. Peak water supply tower is less than a half mile from my house. It is barely visible through the snow field.

I think we might have a mix of snow and drizzle or fog?

It is weird... mixture have more rain again... not a good sign.

Just started snowing here on the edge of West Plano/Carrollton. About a 80%-20% snow-rain mix..

El Nino winters trend to be colder and wetter for the south and stormier and more severe in the spring

northeast garland, all rain, temps have only dropped by .4 of a degree in the last 3 hrs...
temp 40.6 blahh

time to move to KS i think, get the best of both worlds, winter snow and spring storms!

[Tejas89]

Decent lt snow falling by six flags. Still way too warm for anything to stick. I think it's even melting on contact with the few left-over patches on the ground from last week. LOL.

Huge flakes falling in west Fort Worth with Temp down to 32.5 F. Starting to stick to roof tops and grass.

[ColdFusion]

Now all snow on the Dallas Tollway.

Snowing big flakes here in South Dallas, nothing sticking yet though I don't think.

[HockeyTx82]

It's really come down here in Denton right now, snow that is. This is so awesome, third snowfall in a month!!!! (as others have noted)

[CaptinCrunch]

snowing good in dt ftw, temp at 34 dew point still 32

[iorange55]

The tail end of the precip looks to be coming fast again, but they seem to think this will last till 10-12 at night. Is it slowing down? I ask because the temps are really falling now, and within 45 minutes or so this will probably be sicking some could get a decent amount of accumulation, but it looks like it might be winding down just as it starts to stick.

Vertical snow is nice. You can go out into it without having it slap you in the face lol
