I'm not a meteorologist, but the current National Weather Service forecast for the Dallas area shows a 40 percent chance of snow during the day on Saturday, increasing to a 70 percent chance of snow during Saturday night. They show a 20 to 40 percent chance of snow for the Dallas area during Sunday and Sunday night.

This is from KHOU 11 Meteorologist Blake Mathews

“Not often you see the NWS office in Houston mention "heavy snow" or "convective snow banding" in their area discussion. If we get convective snow banding (bright banding), we could see some areas with significantly more snow than 3 inches. STAY TUNED!”

Ironically I will be driving to Colorado to the snow the day before it snows here. Go figure.

Hah there isn't any snow here.

[Hollywood 328]

Austin weather this morning said 80% chance after 2:30p. Hill country closer to 100%

[clapclapclap 9000]

NO!  YES!

PhD....have you decided where you will draw the snow/no snow line?
 

I'm near the Pennybacker bridge and the gf’s kids are setting themselves up for disappoint expecting 8” due to overzealous news weather people.

[Willfully Horn 7913]

The 16 year old’s excitement brought me to this thread. Weather app says 100% chance of snow at noon tomorrow, between Buda and Driftwood. With 37F surface temp.

For her sake, there better be flurries. Big, fat snowflakes to catch on the tongue, is that too much to ask? 

Would enjoy the pup’s reaction to that, too.

Add cynicism to the sucks to be old column.

Your Mom is expecting 8" and she is certainly overzealous.

Temps look like they’ll stay above freezing during Sunday.  Assuming that bodes well for keeping the roads open?  Figure if the ground doesn’t get too cold then it won’t stick enough to totally upend the city

[Jersey Man10 3502]

Should I get my snow shovel out or nah?

That map looks like one of those upside down maps you see in Australia where North and South are oriented differently.

Models have it almost literally running down Ben White.  So the westbound lanes will get 3 feet and the eastbound lanes will be hot and sunny.

Otherwise, this is really hard to pinpoint.  My drinking half a pint of Jim Beam/then flipping a coin prediction is that most of the Austin area will see whitish lawns.  Streets will be wet, but not snowy.  Watch for icing up for sure after dark tonight and esp. into early morning tomorrow.  But not a widespread halt to life on the roads.

That's as good as I can do.

and now we wait...

 

[Homercles 10205]

Yeah I want my kids to see and enjoy some snow, but get the hell to school on time tomorrow. 

[Trey3216 15325]

This may have been the hardest I’ve seen it snow here since the ‘07 “Easter Blizzard” where we got 8 inches of snow officially but it snowed non-stop for 20 hours the day and it was 70 degrees the days before.  
 

these flakes are massive, and it’s starting to stick to the grass and stuff already 

[Deej 76511]

Need enough snow to make my Husky lose her mind.

[Hollywood 328]

Let's fucking snow!

Oh man...I was scheduled for a business trip to Nashville then, right when that was getting ugly.  Had some naïve dedication to the job, barely made it to the airport and was like 1 of 10 people total on that flight.  When I got back my boss was like ‘wtf did you even try to catch that plane’.  
 

Could have spent 3 days at home with my girlfriend at the time, toking it up and watching tv...we broke up shortly afterwards, which in hindsight was absolutely the right thing, so catching that plane probably accelerated the inevitable anyways.

Sleet in 78753. 

[Patricio Swayze 17058]

I don’t know this person but did a search for Abilene to see the snow and saw this:

Mix of fat flakes and sleet here in Cedar Park

It like Lambeau in Hewitt.  This is probably the best day of my kid's lives

[CHIEF 5057]

Didn't have any snow on the ground at 8 am, but we have about 2" on the ground right now in Granbury. Coming down hard, we will probably end up with 6"-10" if it snows until tonight, like they say.
