Me too! Ditto weatherfreak. Thanks everybody for the updates. Can't wait to see some snow on Friday. It would be even better if there's just enough to actually have a real Snow Day! :mrgreen:

And we still have a few days to go. With the models trending wetter, we could have quite a snowstorm on our hands. All we need is 4 inches at IAH to be the heaviest snowfall officially since Feb. 1960.

Hey guys! I've been "sneaking" on here periodically throughout the day while I'm at work, so I'm SURE I've missed alot of talk about what to expect, etc. I'm sorry if I am asking a question that has already been answered (no time to go back and catch up), but what are we looking for here in Brazoria County? Angleton, Lake Jackson, Freeport, etc.....THANK YOU for giving me a quick summary!! I LOVE the fact I am talking to you guys out side of Hurricane season!! :D

Also of note the guidance is trending stronger with the Upper Low. There are even some 'hints' this could start a bit earlier than currently forecast (Thursday afternoon). This is a developing event, folks. I would not be surprised to see further changes ahead.

All models have continued the trend of more moisture for all areas of SE Texas. So it is looking better and it should continue this trend up to the event.

So if snow falls both on Thursday and Friday, would this be the first time in at least awhile that snow has fallen on two consecutive days?

I noticed that the NWS forecast for my area now has up to a tenth of an inch of ice along with snow forecasted for my area. Does it look like this may start out as sleet then transition to snow for the pearland area?
