IT WAS NECESSARY TO REVIEW
THE CHANCES FOR FROZEN PRECIP OVER NORTHERN COUNTIES. THE NEW DATA
STILL SUGGEST ENOUGH CLOUDS AND MOISTURE (http://forecast.weather.gov/glossary.php?word=MOISTURE) TO HOLD OFF FROZEN TEMPS
UNTIL THE PRECIP CHANCES DECREASE; HOWEVER, THERE MAY BE A SLIGHT
INCREASE IN LIGHT MIXED PRECIP FOR A FEW HOURS TOWARD DAYBREAK,
SO WILL CONSIDER ADDING MENTION OF THIS FOR NORTHERNMOST COUNTIES
IN THE ROUTINE AFTERNOON UPDATE.

Manny- what is the purpose of your snowflake icon? Is it tied into this thread's focus on meteorological phenomena? Are you becoming a meteorologist? Are you just moving to a cold-weather climate?

In any event, please, Kori + timvp (edit: or possibly slomo), I need that fucking icon. I'll do anything yous wants for it... and Kori, for you, I do mean anything :lol. Hell, I already have a tattoo of it. Is that enough?

Came out from rehearsal in north Austin around 10 PM - sleet.

Came out from dinner at around 11, still north Austin - light snow. It snowed all the way home. Too warm to stick of course. When we got to the house there was a light accumulation on cars in the neighborhood.

They actually got it right, which is a pleasant change.

Its actually sleeting at my house right now. If the precip keeps up I wonder if it will switch over to snow.

Mikey is right but I'm also becoming a meteorologist.

Seriously, or are you just mocking what I thought was good intuition? If true, cool career.

:lol I got a call from my parents last night. It was 27 degrees and they'd gotten six inches of snow - for the third day in a row.
