David Paul still says the heaviest of all this will fall between midnight and 9 a.m tomorrow. I guess we just have to wait - he said it's really not supposed to start until later this afternoon. Trying to be patient.

Getting numerous reports of sleet...IP accumulations around Clear Lake on rooftops

Canadian sort of looks like the 15Z SREF means, .25 line just North of Houston, but close enough we should pull down close to 2 inches, if correct.

Did you check out your NAM? You are loosing support.
