Checking a RUC sounding for TX City, You'll have to wait until after 10pm for any snow. Moisture decreases aloft by that time, too. Just some light flurries overnight with the main impulse passing.

Just light to moderate snow here at the house still. Nothing even close to accumulating. Anyone seeing any accumulation in Montgomery County? Temps were just way too warm! I've been cursed going all the way back to 2004. lol

Once again, people up my way will just have to wait till the next one. Who know when that will be.
