North Texas...HISTORIC WINTER STORM POISED TO IMPACT THE REGION SUNDAY AND MONDAY... Impacts will begin as early as Saturday morning with patchy freezing drizzle developing late tonight into Saturday morning, which will lead to a light glaze of ice in some locations. After a brief break in precipitation on Saturday, conditions will begin to deteriorate late Saturday evening, with precipitation transitioning from a sleet and freezing rain mix to all snow by Sunday. The heaviest snow can be expected on Sunday and Monday. High winds will lead to blowing and drifting snow with wind chills falling to below zero by late Sunday. Snow will come to an end during the day Monday, but extremely cold temperatures will persist through mid-week. The heavy snow and forecast long duration of extremely cold temperatures will likely lead to major stress on the region's infrastructure as well as crippling travel for several days

01/24/2021

No major changes to the forecast for the rest of today and tonight. Still looking at an isolated hail threat this afternoon/evening in North Texas, transitioning to mainly a wind threat overnight with storms along a cold front.

01/24/2021

Here's the latest on the potential for severe weather today and tonight:

Most of North Texas will have some threat for severe weather through the overnight hours. There is a low chance that a few storms could develop late this afternoon/evening mainly north of I-20. These would have primarily a hail threat.

A line of showers/storms is expected to move through the region overnight. There will be a threat for damaging winds and perhaps an embedded tornado or two with this line overnight. Timing is indicated in the graphic below.

01/23/2021

There is still a chance for severe weather across parts of North Texas late Sunday into the overnight hours. Storm chances will increase late in the day and become highest along a front during the nighttime hours. The greatest threat for severe weather will be generally along and north of I-20 to the Red River. Hail will be the primary threat, especially with any initial storms, but there will also be a low threat for damaging winds and isolated tornadoes within the line of storms along the front. Stay tuned for further updates to the forecast through Sunday.

01/14/2021

A strong and gusty north to northwest wind will filter in behind a
cold front today. Wind speeds along and west of I-35 will increase
between 20 and 30 mph with some gusts near 40 mph. Elsewhere, wind
speeds will range from 15 to 25 mph with some gusts near 35 mph.
Wind speeds will decrease by sunset.
DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Friday through Wednesday.
Low thunderstorm chances return to the forecast next Tuesday across
Central Texas.

01/09/2021

Widespread rain and snow are expected on Sunday as a strong cold
front moves through the region. The greatest chances for accumulating

though accumulations will be possible across parts of North Texas,
including the Dallas/Fort Worth Metropolitan Area.

linger into Monday morning for areas that receive the heaviest
snowfall.
