Jeff,

Before you go, are you just seeing rain for us next week?

Thanks Jeff.

Ice all melted here. Drying up nicely - not bitter cold 38 degrees! We survived. Thanks for everyone again who posted info last night and today.

Should see all the winter-fun melt over the next few hours. Im hoping my ice covered swing set makes it another night. Holding up nicely now.

Next weeks front should lower temps well back into the 20s, but all precip looks to be associated with FROPA and none after.

FYI: Have already have a new thread concerning next week for those that would like to follow and join in on the discussions...

I'm thinking we may not get out of the 20's today here in Katy. Almost 2pm and the temp is showing 25 degrees with no sun. Wow.

Thank you Jeff.

SciGuy has a great blog this morning on the forecast for this winter storm - http://blogs.chron.com/sciguy/

It was the best of forecasts, it was the worst of forecasts...

This weather event was brought to you by the SNOW NAZI.

We really appreciate your job during this freeze.

I'd take surprise snow, freak snow, I'm not picky.

nice work Jeff!! you need a raise....

30 degrees with clouds in Baytown. It's cold.

wxman--- was it moist enough in the snow production layer to produce ice crystals? Several of the model soundings I looked at last night (particularly the RUC) were pretty dry above 600mb while saturated in the lowest few thousand feet. Obviously, the warmer layer aloft was a factor, but I'm curious if that may have been a hindrance to snow as well.

I only managed a high of 31F today - the coldest max of the whole week...

I never got above 30.4F today. I wonder just how big of a drop in temps we'll see tonight?

How many of you would have jumped in the car with this driver last night?! Doesn't look like they were slowing down much...

House still has icicles and iced leaves on the bushes, too. Waterbowl is still frozen.

Dropping like a rock here. Went from 37 to 31 in under 2 hours.
