Yeah, disregard my last. Just checked again. Yes indeed, things are glazing over. Grill cover and exterior brick on our covered patio is indeed icing over now.

Things icing over in Cypress too. Folks, this is not good. Let's hope we have a switchover pretty fast or tomorrow morning could be a hell hole. :shock:

I'm in Kingwood, currently a VERY light drizzle, still liquid on my outdoor table, and temperature reading 29...how does this make sense?

Looks like a much bigger ice threat than we previously though. Drizzle and light freezing rain has begun here.

For you pro mets out there I have two questions concerning the ULL. First off I have been looking at guidance and it seems like the ULL is tracking farther South and East then projected. Do you see this continuing? Secondly I see the ULL is not going all that fast do you see that continuing? Thanks.
