The 2 mesos have fused...moving E now along I-10 slowly.
Near Biblical proportion accumulation if situation does not abate. I hope there are more closures on the NW side.

Due to weather expect delays especially on the North and Northwest sides of town. Route 102 heavily impacted at this time. JG

Albeit a slow crawl, Radar trends are suggesting that more of Metro Houston and Downtown may get in on the action within the next hour. Today would be a good day not to go to work or school I'm thinking.
