You'll see big wet flakes quite a bit this evening. Not sure it will stick though... maybe to grass and cars.

According that Radar Areas near College Station to the North are getting SLAMMED with Sleet!
I have a report from a student at A&M of heavy sleet.
Really? I was just outside on campus and it was just rain.
Good report from the son of an Aggie meteorologist (Class of '80 with me).

It really doesn't seem like the moisture will reach us here in the HGX area.

Is this an optical illusion with these systems or are we going to bust?

I have a question. Is all the moisture that is currently up to the north slowly advancing to the southeast? Looks like the storms are moving east and are way to the north. I have been watching weather all of my life but am constantly learning. Thanks to all of you that make this a learning experience :D

Yeah a few people in my ATMO class just said it was sleeting earlier, I guess I just missed it.

Keep an eye to our W. Radar trends suggests that moisture is filling in rather nicely SW of San Antonio. The entire system is moving ESE from far W TX...

Yup, that's when the action will happen if it happens.
Still have my hopes we may see a flake or two.
