Looks like the end of the precip is between here and San Antonio. Will that be it or will there be more building in? I don't see much going on here in Katy right now but we have had sleet this morning and ice pellets.

Just spoke to Doc Neil. He says just light rain and some sleet at his location and sends his greetings to everyone on the KHOU Regional Weather Forum and how proud Dan would be for all that we have accomplished. :mrgreen:

I agree with Jason's post. I just caught up on all the overnight comments, and I have never in my life I think been so annoyed with seeing the word "bust".
While this may not be the "2-4" inches of snow like predicted over the weekend, the fact is, winter weather is going on that is causing hazardous weather across Houston area. Schools made right calls whether this is worse than Friday or not. Models did a good job as far as showing this was going to be more of a sleet/ice event than snow event.
I understand y'all's frustration, but that is what makes weather fun (IMO). Why I'm getting a degree in Meteorology! If anything, let this be a learning experience.

Thank you for saying this! Last night I was looking for real info and all I saw were a bunch of folks squabbling over the precip type. It was fairly clear that it would be frozen and dangerous, so what's the difference? As far as this being a bust, I seem to remember that from the very beginning, you all were saying it would be a middle of the day event instead of an overnight/early morning one. So it seems we are right on track in that case! Keep up the good work, we appreciate what you do.

If you're gonna call me out for "trolling" then call out the others too. I have never personally attacked anyone on this forum ..so I don't see why you would personally attack me, Srain. I have nothing against anyone on this forum. But I digress...it seems like this board has it preferences and biases. When I had my old account...this board was much different...now idk. It seems like if you don't go along with the general consensus of the members then you should be banned. Well I apologize for bringing up the topics of dry air and the warm nose as well as moisture availability. Anyways I have absolutely no hard feelings towards anyone...so for ppl to be making direct attacks at me and calling me out when other ppl have been trolling here for days now....that's a bit unfair. But it's all good.

Have a good day folks, stay safe and enjoy the weather.

I miss Doc on air. I really do. Tell him that Srainhoutx. It is really coming down in Atascocita. Maybe that snow will make it from Candy Cane to us. :)

Just had a really great snow/sleet shower that the kids got to play in. Really nice snow mixed in. I am located off Riley Fuzzel/Rayford Road area in Spring (Montgomery County). Snow has slowed, but sleet is still coming down. Roof tops and cars are white.

Can anyone say with any certainty that we will for sure be staying at or below freezing for the remainder of the day and if so, where that freeze line will be?

Getting light sleet now. I can hear it hitting my deck. I was outside trying to fix something with my pond pump and noticed the patio table had ice.
