332 PM EST sun Feb 12 2012

... A wintry mix possible Monday night into Tuesday morning...

A strong Arctic high which has affected the area the last two days
will gradually shift east of the area... allowing for a return of
moisture to the area late Monday. This will result in precipitation
moving into the western portions of the area late Monday evening
and the remainder of the area through Monday night. Enough cold air
is expected to be in place to result in a 1 to 3 hour period
initially when some sleet or snow could mix with the rain. From
Carrolton to Commerce and points northward... a dusting or less of
sleet and snow is expected. No accumulations are anticipated south of
this line. There is quite a bit of uncertainty with this forecast
given the amount of cold air remaining in place and timing issues
with respect to the precipitation. Therefore... everyone is encouraged
to check frequently for forecast updates issued from this office.
