As the storm that brought snow to Texas yesterday begins to fade away, we take a look at another possible winter scenario that is setting up in the Northeastern part of the United States. Looking at the models, it seems that this storm will impact on Thursday and will peak during the afternoon/night. 

This is going to become another major storm in the area this year, as poor traveling conditions as well as delayed and cancelled flights will be imminent. 

This storm is also looking to bring a very large amount of snow to these areas. We'll keep you updated later in the day for new developments in this storm system.

Snow is beginning to spread across Northern Texas today, as a system moves through the area. This storm will bring more snow to Dallas/Fort Worth, Austin, and as the day continues, even Houston! Take a look at this model.

So yes, snow in Texas is for certain! For more current up-to-date information, go to the Storm Prediction Center's website, and take a look around.

It's February... and there is more snowfall in the forecast for Texas! Earlier this month, a monster winter storm struck the nation, causing snowfall accumulations of 10 to 14 inches as far south as Dallas, Texas! This storm also caused near record breaking snowfall in the East, as well as leaving thousands of households without power.

Now another system is moving into Texas, bringing with it the chance of some snowfall in Northern, and as night falls, Southern Texas! Take a look at this model forecast compliments of Tornadovideos.net and twisterdata.com.

It's showing that precipitation amounts will be decent for the area. However, we are yet to know it the temperature will be low enough to support snowfall. So hang in there, and check back later for more information and reports!

Today we look into the huge Artic air mass moving across the southern United States. The verdict: it's cold!

Houston, San Antonio, Orlando, Dallas; all cities know for their mild winters and hot summers. All plunging into the 20s and even the teens! Snow falling in places that you wouldn't expect to see it, like Flordia, Alabama, and many other southern states.

So, bundle up, and get ready for the long winter ahead! It doesn't look like it's going to end anytime soon.
