Light Rain, Flurries Possible Overnight

Colder air has filtered into the state as a northern stream trough digs into the Mid South. Meanwhile, a shortwave embedded in the southern stream will approach from the west. The southern stream disturbance will be the one to watch because it is generating a large swath of wintry precipitation across Texas. We won't have to deal with any precipitation issues during the day. Cloud cover will be an issue today, and it appears that low clouds are slowly eroding across Pickens County. The erosion is trying to work its way to the east, and it's possible that we may see some broken clouds this morning. However, clouds will thicken again this afternoon in advance of the southern stream disturbance. Highs should top out around 53 this afternoon if we can get a few peeks of sun this morning.

By this evening, most of the precipitation that is currently over Texas will weaken as it moves eastward. However, as the northern and southern stream disturbances begin to phase, some light precipitation may develop after 3 a.m. Forecast soundings suggest that a mix of rain and some snow flurries will be possible, but no travel problems are anticipated since surface temperatures will remain above freezing. In fact, lows tomorrow morning will be near 37. A chilly and active weather pattern looks to continue for the next week plus.
