Yes, something has changed. I'm not convinced this moisture axis will move south. Making me think we won't get hardly any precip.

32.4 , but as always seems to be the case, the precip isn't close. Now Collin and Denton counties, completely different story.

There's a coating of ice on all of the cars here just north of Denton at my work. Graupel, rain, sleet mix coming down. SOme ice in trees, mailboxes coated with ice, just the beginning:) 29 degrees at the Denton airport atm. Just put salt and our special mix down because the ramp to the Krum post office is getting slick with ice. not much on the parking lot at the moment.
