North Texas is under a Winter Weather Warning for Thursday. Dylan Federico, a meteorologist for FOX 4, explains the prediction for tomorrow, including when the wintry mix will give way to snow.
DALLAS: In anticipation of snowfall on Thursday and into Friday morning, an AWinter storm warning was issued for the majority of North Texas.
Significant travel interruptions along the I-20 corridor, especially in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex, could result from widespread snow accumulations.
This is the current situation as of Wednesday afternoon.
Is it going to snow on Thursday?
On Thursday, snow is likely to fall, but it won’t be all of it.
Throughout the day, there will probably be wintry mix precipitation, particularly south of the metroplex. Additionally, the roadways may be slick, albeit primarily wet, due to below-freezing temperatures.
The heavier snow that will adhere to the ground, particularly to the north and northeast of the metroplex, will take over on Thursday night.
The snow is expected to last until Friday morning before it moves out.
How many inches of snow are expected on Thursday?
Where you reside will determine how much snow you receive.
Our north and east will receive the most snowfall. As of this now, we anticipate that area receiving at least 3 to 6 inches.
We anticipate between two and four inches in the Metroplex.
We anticipate 1 to 3 inches to the northwest and south of DFW.
Note that these figures are subject to change!
If a layer of warm air persists longer than anticipated, that figure might be lower in the Metroplex. If the warm air leaves more quickly than we anticipate, the number can be larger.
Until the snow falls on Thursday, we will continue to adjust our forecast.
Major interruptions are to be expected wherever you live.
Winter Storm Warning
Much of North Texas is under a Winter Storm Warning through Friday afternoon.
A major winter weather event involving snow, ice, sleet, blowing snow, or a combination of these conditions is the reason for the alerts.
It indicates that in some circumstances, travel will become challenging or impossible. Additionally, locals are urged to postpone travel until the situation improves.
