Sleetmaggedon '18 has started in Irving. Joking of course but it is picking up in intensity.
Big batch moving in.

Hearing reports of sleet falling in Lewisville/The Colony. Have yet to encounter any precipitation in frisco but it should be here shortly.
EDIT:About as soon as I posted, sleet began to fall.

Very strange watching pingers bounce all over the place with partial blue skies to my north.

It was very odd for them to remove it in the first place. The band was developing when they removed it. Now this will not create widespread issues but I do think it warrants a low end WWA. Glad SHV has left theirs up. We had a band of feeezing drizzle earlier and should see sleet around noon.

There has been a wide array (in terms of wintry precip) on various guidance with the western low coming out. Some runs Kansas, some runs Oklahoma, and some runs Texas. A good portion of them at least have a good rain event.

And just like that, the band splits as it approaches the northern part of Dallas Co.

Wishful thinking. Once we get an inch of snow we will complain there hasn't been a WSW for 4 inches
