It looks like the front is actually a tad slow when comparing the 12z RAP/HRRR to the 18z initialization.

Fort Worth and Dallas winds are shifting; Abilene soon. The actual cold will probably take an hour to settle in once wind shifts north.

Looks like we may be able to squeeze out a couple inches here tomorrow evening if we're lucky but this cold dry air is definitely not our classic snow setup that's for sure

Must watch TV… :eek:


Postponed until Monday due to severity and fan safety. Note, it’s still going to be snowing there Monday.

So far, 18z hasn't delivered on its Happy Hour reputation. The 15z SREF did continue a trend wetter for DFW, which made 4 runs in a row. Up to 0.15 QPF.

Front is through and winds are whipping out of the north. Instant temp drop. Love this kind of transition after a front drops in. Pretty cool to witness.

Some fashion tips in that WWA as well: :cold:

Use extreme caution while traveling outside. Wear appropriate clothing, a hat, and gloves.

I know there are several factors, but I still can't wrap my head around how a system will dump tons of snow/have moisture for the midwest, but they tend to be so dry when we get the same temperatures here.
