It's really come down here in Denton and the wind is howling at times. Still not sticking on the grass yet. Crazy stuff. Hey I am happy, anything beyond this is all gravy.

This stuff is backed up to Abliene so it has plenty of time to stick, temp here is at 33, and with the snow getting harder I'd imagine within an hour it'll be sticking.

Re: Texas winter wx thread (2009-2010)
snow is lighter here now. Still blowing around a lot and not yet accumulating, but we have a LONG way to go, so Im not too worried yet. Temp has dropped quite a bit, from 38 an hour ago to 34 now. Snow should start accumulating soon

Updated e-mail from Jeff...
Strong winds pounding much of TX with snow dropping as far south as just north of Austin.
Frequent wind gust to 40mph over the region with Victoria gusting to 44mph and Palacios 47mph. Impressive winter storm continues to wrap up over N TX right over FWD with large band of moderate to heavy snow dropping SE from Brownwood to about 2 counties NW of Austin. Blizzard conditions in progress over NW TX with near zero visibilities in heavy snow and blowing snow. Could see light SN/flurries clip our northern counties this afternoon in strong CAA regime as secondary cold surge drives south on the backside of the upper storm.
Winds will continue to gust up to and over 40mph this afternoon before weakening after sunset.

Flakes are bigger here in Irving and coming down at a good clip. Winds seems to be picking up drastically out west and looks to move into the area later in the afternoon.

I will also take off my Longhorn ballcap and tip it in the direction of msstateguy83. I thought he was nuts as late as last night at dinnertime. You did nail this one several days out. Impressive!
Now, if you can spin up a winter storm for me down here in Austin ... I'll start your fan club.
P.S. And thanks for the pics. Good stuff.

Re: Texas winter wx thread (2009-2010)
The wind makes it kinda tough to go out an enjoy the snowfall. hahaha.
At times, looks like the snow is going up rather than falling down.
I think some of the gusts here are pushing 40 mph. I estimated visibility of a half mile or so a little while ago. Like a dense fog.
There are waves of snow dust blowing along the street now. Kinda cool to see that.

Slowly starting to stick longer on cars, and the roof. Not yet on the grass though.
Does anyone know how much Abilene has had? In snow? I think it'll be a good estimate as to what we can expect, maybe a little less here.

Re: Texas winter wx thread (2009-2010)
The wind is going pretty nuts here the snow is whipping around and temp has dropped to 31, so it looks like it should be sticking soon!!! I'm having company over now, so I'm hoping for a huge snowball fight later, although I have no mittens so I'll likely develop frostbite .

Wind is howling and driving the snow here as well. Knocked over some of our lawn decorations.
Edit: winter weather advisories are now just west of Waco
