...WINTER WEATHER EXPECTED FOR NORTH TEXAS...

A MIX OF SLEET AND SNOW IS EXPECTED TO OCCUR OVER MOST OF NORTH
TEXAS THIS AFTERNOON INTO MONDAY MORNING. A WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY
FOR ACCUMULATIONS OF ONE TO TWO INCHES HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR AREAS
ALONG AND NORTHWEST OF A LINE FROM EASTLAND TO WEATHERFORD TO DENTON
TO MCKINNEY TO PARIS.

SOUTHEAST OF THIS ADVISORY AREA...THE REST OF NORTH TEXAS WILL SEE A
MIX OF SLEET AND SNOW THIS AFTERNOON INTO THIS EVENING...BECOMING
SLEET MIXED WITH RAIN NEAR MIDNIGHT AND THEN ALL RAIN BEFORE
SUNRISE IN ALL AREAS EXCEPT THOSE NORTH OF INTERSTATE 30 AND EAST OF
INTERSTATE 35. BY MID MORNING THOSE LAST AREAS WILL CHANGE TO RAIN
AS WELL. 

ACCUMULATIONS NEAR THE WINTER ADVISORY AREA MAY REACH UP TO THREE
TENTHS OF AN INCH...BUT WITH WARM GROUND TEMPERATURES THESE
ACCUMULATIONS SHOULD ONLY AFFECT ELEVATED SURFACES SUCH AS BRIDGES
AND OVERPASSES. EXERCISE CAUTION WHEN DRIVING...BECAUSE IT MAY BE
HARD TO SEE ANY ICE ON ROADWAYS BEFORE REACHING IT. 

AS THE ATMOSPHERE CONTINUES TO WARM OVERNIGHT...PRECIPITATION
WILL CHANGE TO RAIN AND THE WINTER WEATHER THREAT SHOULD END BY
SUNRISE MONDAY WEST OF INTERSTATE 35 AND NORTH OF INTERSTATE
20...AND BY MID MORNING IN ALL AREAS.

AS WITH ALL WINTER EVENTS...THE SITUATION HAS THE POTENTIAL TO
CHANGE. IF ACCUMULATIONS ARE EXPECTED FARTHER SOUTH...THE ADVISORY
MAY BE EXPANDED.

Coldest Morning of Winter so far…

6 AM Temperatures - Northern Half of Texas

6 AM Temperatures - Southern Half of Texas

Its a very cold morning across Texas with all of the state, except deep south Texas, at or below freezing. The coldest temperatures can be found across the Caprock and Texas Panhandle where temperatures are in the single digits and lower teens. Low temperatures from 18 to 29 degrees can be found across Northern and Central Texas, including the hill country. Folks closer to the coast are closer to 30 degrees, which is still mighty cold for those parts. We’ll warm up later this morning and should enjoy a pleasant day across Texas. Enjoy your Wednesday!

 

Very cold temperatures for Tonight

10 PM Temperatures across TexasA very cold night is in store for all of Texas as deep, artic air continues to filter south across the state. Amarillo was already down to ten degrees at 10 PM and it’s possible they approach the negative territory by morning. Several locations in the panhandle may end up at or below zero tonight. It won’t be that cold further south, but low temperatures from 15 to 25 degrees are possible along/north of Interstate 20 with 20-30 degree lows from I-10 and points northward. Even extreme south Texas could hit freezing tonight!

 

Light Snow/Freezing Drizzle possible across Northern D/FW overnight

Radar at 9:10 PM

A band of light snow has developed across portions of northeastern Parker county into eastern Wise county. This band is nearly stationary, but is exhibiting a very slow eastward movement. As we continue through the night, drizzle will likely develop across the northern sections of the D/FW metroplex. As temperatures will be below freezing, this drizzle will have the potential to coat all elevated surfaces in a thin layer of ice. The National Weather Service has indicated that a winter weather advisory may be required if confidence increases in regards to the potential of freezing drizzle. Should we get widespread freezing drizzle, we could have a very nasty rush hour tomorrow morning.
