35 and moderate rain here in SW Austin.

It's actually colder over in H-town and they're starting to get in on the "fun" right now.

I'm a few miles ENE of you and just heard thunder (about 2 miles SW of the SW corner of 610). No rain yet. Temperature 35.6.

So are the school districts in denial or what? I see very little in the way of late openings.

I hope you get 4.5" of rain into mid 20 degree air temperatures like we had in Texarkana during Christmas day of 2000. The bad part was the rain fell steadily over a 24 hour period. The next morning it looked like a cat 4 hurricane had gone through the city. It was the first time I had ever gone through a natural disaster and hopefully the last.

The latest HRRR is much wetter for the Austin and Cen-Tex areas.

Wondering the same thing! Check out what is just coming into radar range in Mexico.

Looks even better on satellite!

I cataloged the Snowmiser's hijinx in Off Topic. Let me know if there are any inaccuracies in details regarding the bet in that thread and I will correct it.

In reference to that HRRR run, it is much wetter than the 18Z GFS or 0Z NAM for Austin.

The rain here is starting to freeze on my patio grill, also going from drizzle to light rain.
