So any activities in the evening time there should be no risk of icy commutes correct? Seems like 40ish degree Temps should thaw us out.

Getting into range with the RAP. It also shows the beginning formation of frozen precip some of the models show developing Thursday night.

If that map verified, that would be pretty bad news in those shaded areas. Those are some hefty accumulations in places. 1/2 - 3/4" of ice on those pine trees would be a lot more trouble than 'some glazing in spots'...
1/2 inch of ice around CLL...I did recommend folks bring their iceskates on Thursday! :lol:


It's going to be a rink up here, potentially.

Is that going to be moving off towards the north or to the east towards the coast?

The trends have been interesting today, but i would like to see the 0Z runs and 12Z runs tomorrow morning,before completely buying it.As those runs should have sampled storm data.

It’s looking like the majority of southeast Texas will be at or below freezing by the late afternoon/early evening timeframe on Thursday.

...and overperforming is the M.O. for shallow arctic air this time of year.
