Sounds like our conditions are pretty similar to those in Richardson. The sleet has kept me awake for a while now, I'd rather have quiet snow. :cheesy: The wind is wailing out there!

60's begin Saturday through the extended...

I thought that the dry slot would save us from getting freezing rain/sleet... boy was I wrong. The band coming through right now is going to cause some major headaches.

Ntxw,
Is the HRRR still showing some heavier bands later in the day?

HRRR has a few bands developing over the metroplex but at this point just keep track of the radar. The stuff just to the NW might pivot over us later.
