One more wave of rain and a tiny chance of snow

Nice to know I wasn't totally off on my prediction last night. Here is the latest graphic, released about 30 minutes ago from NOAA. As expected, the upper low will throw some cold air aloft and give the area dotted in the graphic, a chance for seeing some snow.

On radar, there is a fairly heavy band of rain, sleet or snow approaching us from the west at 4:15. If we don't see a few flakes with this band, that will probably be it for this round. We may even see a sunset tonight. Meanwhile, Dallas really saw a lot of snow and is expecting even more tonight. They are currently in a winter storm warning and may get up to 7 inches of snow with this system.

At this time it appears we will go into a dry pattern for several days, with a strong front moving in on Sunday afternoon. In fact, we could see some light freezes on Monday and Tuesday with this cold front. Our next chance for some frozen precipitation will be around the 20th, but that is still too far off to get excited about. Also, as we go past the middle of February, it becomes increasingly difficult to see snow around here, due to us being so darn close to the equator!
