Did a lot of the models reel back their predictions due to the "heat island" effect of DFW due to higher temps the last few days (moving the temp forecasts up a few degrees)? Or is it more the system is moving more north of the metroplex than initially thought?

Euro model still throwing big snow numbers

I'm smack-dab in the middle of Collin county. Right on the decimal between 9.4
I'm in Celina and have no idea what to expect at this point. I'm apparently to expect 1-2 inches of sleet/snow to 8 inches of snow...but I'm ready for it with my 20 cases of toilet paper, 5 jugs of milk, 15 loaves of bread, and 8 dozen eggs.

I don't think it was heat island so much as a coastal low forming down in the Gulf that would pump warmer air up in the mid-levels. And that air would be above freezing and prevent the frozen stuff - just cold rain.

But as the short term data is coming in now, that's not having as much of an effect as expected with yesterday's model runs.

The Doc better head to Bass Pro, pick up the thermals, know the gloves are going to slightly increase his trigger pull force needed and head out. He only had the one weekend this year!

Well I am in Allen and prepped. Got my mini heaters, some soup, blankets, and hopefully can take some cool star wars cosplay pics in the snow.

People need to chill the heck out. Some cold temps (not that cold) and some ice / snow (not that damned much). Roll with it and by Sat and Sun, it will be 47 and 50 degrees and I'll be back to wearing shorts. Geez.

Model trends continue to point to more snow across more of the DFW Metroplex.

NWS just expanded the winter weather advisories for more counties including more to the south.

If you want to see the white stuff and a lot of it, the trend is your friend.

From a friend of ours in admin for Prosper ISD, they coordinate with Frisco and McKinney ISDs.

Expect those two to be closing for tomorrow as well.
