Mesoscale Discussion 0082
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0704 PM CST Sun Feb 14 2021

Areas affected...Portions of Texas Hill Country into Southeast Texas

Concerning...Heavy snow

Valid 150104Z - 150700Z

SUMMARY...Pockets of moderate to heavy snow are possible in parts of
the DFW metro and eastward in the short term. The next area of heavy
snow to develop will likely be within the Edwards Plateau perhaps by
8-10 PM CST. This heavy snow will develop eastward into Southeast
Texas through the evening and overnight.

DISCUSSION...Current water vapor imagery shows another area of
mid-level ascent moving through the Big Bend region. This ascent is
forecast to pivot through the base of the broad upper-level trough
as it moves east. MRMS radar imagery shows heavier bands of
precipitation developing in Mexico that should begin to move into
the Edwards Plateau within the next 1-3 hours. 1 inch per hour
snowfall rates are possible as the favorable lift within the
dendritic growth layer moves through the region.

A band of moderate to heavy snow now moving east through the DFW
metro area will continue to bring around 1 inch per hour rates.
However, this is expected to decrease with time as the more
favorable synoptic ascent shifts to the south.

Austin has quickly fallen into teens and CLL is nearing 20°. Temps will rapidly fall tonight as the trough moves through around 2am here in SETX. This is going to be a one-two punch as the heaviest sleet/snow will begin falling between 2-6am.
