Hopefully everyone is staying safe and warm this afternoon!  It’s been a real mixed bag across the DFW area with some folks seeing decent amounts of snow and others not seeing much at all.  Unfortunately, a pocket of drier air aloft across north central Texas, and temps several degrees above freezing, were not our friends today and inhibited much of the snow development for several hours.  Further south and west, a whole different story!  Folks in the southern panhandle, Rolling Plains and Permian Basin region woke up to lots of snow this morning.  Areas just west of and south of DFW are now seeing some of the heaviest snowfall of the day.  Our current concern will be areas south of DFW…Navarro, Limestone and Freestone Counties which are currently seeing the heaviest bands of snow which will mean rapidly accumulating snow and slushy driving conditions for the next several hours.  For areas east of I-45…you’re next as the area of low pressure bringing us this winter wonderland will continue to track east this afternoon and evening.   Thank you everyone for sharing your pictures and updates throughout the day!

Here’s a look at the latest short-range forecast loop which shows snow chances continuing to dwindle across north central Texas and increasing for areas east of I-45 as we get further into the afternoon hours.  We may see some chances for wrap around flurries overnight across north and northeast Texas, but for most of DFW…what you’ve seen today sofar with regard to snow accumulation (if any) will be it for this storm system.  After this system departs, we’ll be looking at a stretch of days with no precipitation and seasonal winter temperatures.
