From the second floor, I am seeing what I thought to be sleet but at second glance appears to be snowflakes mixed in with the rain near the Galleria right now. You see it Ed?

I can't remember where everyone is and "sleeting at my house" doesn't help much if we haven't a clue where you live.

...and now, back to our regularly-scheduled snow event.

Glad you've asked! On the upper right of this forum page, click "User Control Panel". In the left frame of the page that loads, choose "Profile". You'll see a bunch of boxes of info you can add in there. One of them is "Location". Just fill it in and hit "Save" at the bottom.

Thank you!

Another round of snow about to move into Austin now. That'll be with the main low.

At work in Deer Park close to La Porte: moderate steady rain and occasionally minor sleet mixing in a little (very little, but definitely frozen stuff) I guess it could be all the sea gulls too, but it sounds frozen. Hitting the tin roof and it's making me sleepy. :roll: Gonna be a terrible drive home.

It is. Lift is increasing across the region as the main low approaches the area. I know at first glance it appears that things are moving at a steady clip and we would be left without in precip in a few hours, but you can already tell the backbuilding and lift increasing between San Antonio and Houston. Plus, there's still a batch of precip moving into the IH-35 corridor associated with the main low pressure system.

Don't worry guys. We aren't getting out of this one without seeing some snow.

That indicates the temps aloft are starting to drop below freezing not too far up. Give it another few hours to change over to snow.
