...LIGHT SNOW POSSIBLE NORTH OF I-10 TODAY...
A STRONG COLD FRONT THAT MOVED ACROSS THE AREA LAST NIGHT IS USHERING A MUCH COLDER AIRMASS INTO THE REGION. TEMPERATURES IN THE 40S THIS MORNING WILL SLOWLY FALL INTO THE 30S BY THIS AFTERNOON. THIS WILL CREATE A POTENTIAL FOR SOME LIGHT SNOW TO OCCUR ACROSS PORTIONS OF SOUTHEAST TEXAS AND LOUISIANA.
AREAS OF LIGHT RAIN AND DRIZZLE CONTINUE TO OVERSPREAD THE REGION EARLY TODAY. BY LATER THIS MORNING...THE LIGHT RAIN AND DRIZZLE MAY BEGIN MIXING WITH LIGHT SNOW AS FAR SOUTH AS THE I-10 CORRIDOR.
AREAS MOST LIKELY TO SEE ANY LIGHT SNOW WILL BE ACROSS INTERIOR SOUTHEAST TEXAS AND CENTRAL LOUISIANA...GENERALLY ALONG AND NORTH OF A KOUNTZE TO MARKSVILLE LINE. IN THESE AREAS...LIGHT RAIN AND DRIZZLE MAY BEGIN MIXING WITH LIGHT SNOW LATER THIS MORNING...BEFORE POTENTIALLY CHANGING OVER TO ALL LIGHT SNOW BY THIS AFTERNOON.
SHOULD SNOW OCCUR...LITTLE OR NO SNOW ACCUMULATIONS ARE ANTICIPATED. SOME LIGHT DUSTINGS OF SNOW ARE POSSIBLE ON ELEVATED SURFACES AND GRASSY AREAS IN INTERIOR SOUTHEAST TEXAS AND CENTRAL LOUISIANA.
TRAVEL IS NOT EXPECTED TO BE IMPACTED AS GROUND TEMPERATURES REMAIN TOO WARM FOR ANY SNOW TO ACCUMULATE ON AREA ROADWAYS.
PLEASE LISTEN TO NOAA WEATHER RADIO OR YOUR LOCAL MEDIA FOR THE LATEST UPDATES ON THIS POTENTIAL WINTER WEATHER SITUATION.
