33 rain and wind. Seems to be still liquid.

Crazy dog wants to go outside and see what I'm looking at when I go out.

We've been blanketed here, and it's still falling. I just hope the snow doesn't give a false sense of security for drivers, because there is likely ice underneath that snow from earlier ponding/frz rain/ and sleet. :eek:

Another bust....I could see it coming as soon as the temperatures stabilized at 33-34.

I officially resent all the Metroplexers. :grr:

How much have you gotten? Over 3 inches? I've been Friday's 2 inch total here.

I can't tell right now, definitely looks to be 2-3 inches so far, maybe 4, I'll measure in the morning.

I'm reading that sleet isn't too far to your west (according to Twitter).

I really, sincerely wish that you guys will get something tonight!!!!!! I'd send this PORTASTORM's way if I could.

I am happy to report we are now receiving all snow!!! It's insane how much faster snow accumulates compared to sleet.

I think we've already gotten more snow than last week. It's crazy!

33.1 and the cable just went out during a tied game. Not sure if related.

Looks like the next round should be frozen.

This snow is no good for snowballs or snowmen. I tried, it scattered.

NWS FW is at 2.3 inches, no data coming out of DFW that I can find. They haven't been reporting for a while but I know for a fact it's been coming down hard there because I'm right next to it and I have 2-3 inches easily.

You aren't kidding. This snow is only good for two things; photos and videos. Sadly, I am already dressed for bed and have to wake up at 6:30 in the morning.

I did film a little bit from my porch. I'll post it tomorrow if it looks good on the computer.

Edit: Just heard thunder for the first time.

Edit #2: Not for the first time in my life. Just to be clear.

Looks like I'm nearing the backedge of the heavy snow area, starting to transition through the area. I'd say we picked up 2-3 inches here at the house.
