Drive carefully in slush, visibility is really low once you hit the metroplex. Many locations are down to half mile or less.

Looks like another moderate to heavy snow band the short range models were forecasting is starting to form southwest of Fort Worth. Another round will move through the metroplex over the next few hours.

Lets see if I can push 10, would need a good 3\4 inches more.

If you have it hosted, like on imageshack, then click the "Img" button and paste the URL to the pic in between the html tags. You'll need to click the "Post Reply" button rather than typing in the quick reply box.

You can see the upper level trough's influence on temperatures as it moves through west central Texas right now. The snow line is moving quickly to the south in that area. Very impressive radar returns as well.

It's the influence of the upper level trough moving in from the west. It will get even drier and ratios will go up as the day goes on.

This is definitely the big ticket item I have been waiting for. I'm set for the next decade.

Either slush, or just wet with water. When the snow slacked up earlier, most of the slush on the roads I drove on melted.

Yes, just like I thought it would be. Tonight it will refreeze on the overpasses

Austin isn't going to see anything...


Dude ... I didn't even ask! Do you have to rub it in?! Gawd, it's bad enough knowing winter wonderland is just 3 hours to my north.
