Herezog said we have 2 rounds of precipitation..one tonight and one Fri morning.
Not sure why you are saying precipitation ends between 8 and 10 but you know more then me so I'll take you're word for it

Because for most it will end tonight as the bulk of the energy exits to the northeast. Along the coast could see a second round in the morning but that isn't a guarantee. The bulk of any frozen precipitation is expected tonight.

I've been hovering around 39.5 up until a few minutes ago it's currently 37.5 so temps here are starting to drop.

Me. Anything that isn't snow is wasted anyways. Sleet, grapple, and freezing rain are just a pain in the rear.

Looking at the radar it looks like mesoscale banding is taking place.It will be interesting to see how that large band transpires tonight.

Caldwell has been getting a snow mix for hours. More sleet coming down. I took this about an our ago. Not sure if it qualifies for "accumulation, though." :lol:

From Jeff
Cold air mass continues to push into the region.

Freezing line extends from just north of College Station to Giddings to the north side of San Antonio. This line has only slowly progressed southward this morning. North of this line freezing drizzle/rain is falling, but per TXDOT road reports much of any surface bridge/overpass ice accumulations is well behind the surface freezing line and this is closer to where temperatures are in the 29-30 degree range. Large swath of rain and freezing rain continues over the western and northern parts of SE TX with a lack of returns over the US 59 corridor.

Rain out to the west will slowly move to the east with time while decreasing in coverage this afternoon and evening. High resolution guidance continues to bring this activity toward the US 59 corridor by early to mid evening. While this happens, the surface freezing line will begin to push southeast deeper into the region and expect the light rain to become light freezing rain across most areas NW of US 59 during the late afternoon and early evening hours.

Some patchy ice accumulation on bridges and overpasses remains possible especially where surface temperatures fall into the 29-30 degree range. This will most likely happen overnight to the NW of the US 59 corridor. Any accumulations will be light, but it does not take much to cause issues on bridges….especially the taller flyovers and connector ramps.

Wind Chill Advisory remains in place for tonight generally along and NW of US 59 (Harris County has been added to this advisory)

Hard Freeze Warning remains in place tonight from Waller and Montgomery Counties north and west (not including Harris County)
