That red blob to the southwest of Houston looks like a severe cell making a b-line for the city. Is that going to hold up?

Let's see what effects is has on the temp there. Will it be evaporative cooling or will the moisture pull the upper warm layer down and mix to warm the surface?

Ground temps will have cooled significantly from the low maximum temperatures we had throughout the day. The effect of those 80s yesterday afternoon is getting more diffuse the longer the cold stays in place.

I think the NWS made a solid move pulling the trigger early with warnings for Harris county.
Exactly. I see freezing rain more dangerous than snow. It is even more dangerous with sleet as it can cool the ground even faster.

The temp is finally starting to drop faster here 37.6F, a full degree in the last 30 minutes. I'm having to live this event vicariously through y'all Northerners.
