Winter mix possible on Thursday

Latest National Weather Service update

Grand Praieie can expect a wintry mix of precipitation tonight through Thursday night.

A low pressure system will affect North Texas tonight through Thursday night and bring a mix of rain and light snow. This storm system will move slower than previously depicted by the computer models which will allow a better return of low level moisture and slightly warmer temperatures. Therefore, most of the precipitation will occur when temperatures are above freezing and travel impacts tonight and Thursday should be minimal.

Temperatures will fall below freezing Thursday night through Friday morning and some slick spots may develop on area roads, especially bridges and overpasses.

Accumulations of wet snow will be generally less than 1 inch. However, up to one inch of snow may accumulate in some locations north of a Comanche to Athens line, especially on grassy and elevated surfaces.

North Texas residents and motorists traveling across the region on Thursday should stay informed of the latest weather information and forecasts by visiting the National Weather Service website.
