Looks like something might be trying to fall in the Georgetown area. Not sure if it is virga.

Waco/Killeen is next in line of fire for that band.

It's not virga. It's sleet and it's coming down at my house now. Has been for a little while.

Portastorm - we have snow/sleet in NW Austin. Hope you're getting it too! (NOTE: I haven't read through the threads yet to see if you're getting snow yet, lol.. Reading now..)

Is there any reason snow lovers to be worried that it's started developing north of Austin?

I presume as the night goes on, stuff will start to develop between Del Rio and San Antonio?

I believe so. You can see there is stuff all the back in Mexico. I think it'll fill in more.

Also that band north of austin sure is expanding :]

Just finished reading, and yes Portastorm, you've already been notified, lol. There are certainly snow flakes here coming down here and there, but mainly sleet. Enough that you can tell that it's sticking to the road.

What are your thoughts for the Dallas area? I think it's looking pretty good.

Look at the quick burst the small area became. Impressive...I'm feeling some surprises coming. Not everyday you see snow falling in the low 20s from central to north Texas.

Ok maybe this will light up like a christmas tree like the WRF suggests.

It's looking a lot better than it was a few days ago! Might end up being a nice little snow event.
