Looks like the HRRR is too warm on temps so far.

Just mentally prepare yourself; some areas in DFW will switch over to rain at times tomorrow. The best snow and biggest ratios will come late in the day or early evening. Don't fret, don't drink too much whiskey, and don't beat your dog b/c it's raining during the day tomorrow. Snow will come! :slime:

Now, if you don't switch over to rain. Then, the sleet will lay a solid foundation for the coming snow :yow:

Some light returns on the radar produced very light snow as it moved over. No sleet or rain mixed. Hopefully it starts to expand to the Southwest and pick up later.

That's getting a bit close to DFW. I might have to stay up now to try and catch the first flakes!

Been following this all day. Scary thought is this pattern isnt quick to change. Diving short waves (dry) may do it again this month. That northerly Santa Ana type winds is no bueno.

Yeah true (early next wk looking bad again). It really is shocking to see some of these areas under threat (not that it isn't any more shocking when it occurs elsewhere) but areas along Sunset Blvd and West Hollywood sections being evacuated tonight not something you would ever expect.

Man I should have just gone to bed early feel like Im getting cut watching the temp go up. Got down to 28 now it’s back up to 30. 80% humidity think our friends north and East that have dropped in the mid 20s will really cash in.

I’m still at 38-37 despite surrounding counties already being at freezing. Annoying
