Checking a RUC sounding for TX City, You'll have to wait until after 10pm for any snow. Moisture decreases aloft by that time, too. Just some light flurries overnight with the main impulse passing.

Just light to moderate snow here at the house still. Nothing even close to accumulating. Anyone seeing any accumulation in Montgomery County? Temps were just way too warm! I've been cursed going all the way back to 2004. lol

Once again, people up my way will just have to wait till the next one. Who know when that will be.

Im, glad people to our north got to see snow. just another cold rain here BRING ON SPRING!!!

Srain hasn't posted in awhile hmmmm, wonder whats going on over there?

YAY for all of you who got snow that is awesome!! As far as us we have given up and we are going to celebrate y'alls happiness! We've decided to make it a junk food/movie night over here!!

Our flurries are starting!!!

I see they started at 5:27pm. When I said 6:28pm, that was Eastern Time.

wxman- whats the ETA on flurries for the kingwood area, and do you think that it could come down at a decent clip before it ends?

We prolly did brazoria and I didn't get none last time either, guess next time I better tip the snowmaker

Radar shows a nice moisture feed continuing to move from the southwest to the north east just need that snow line to sag further south....

Huge flakes in Waller County and things are beginning to stick to the ground. It is a beautiful day out there.

Lots of sleet bouncing off of me at the HEB at 2920....otherwise.....cold, cold rain. *Sigh*

FINALLY! Moderate sleet has started coming down here. Looking forward to that magic 7-8 p.m. time slot!
