Watching developments to the west… rain is changing over to snow in the Houston area… but no major travel issues out there so far. You can see the Houston traffic cams here. The Houston metro area is under a winter storm warning.

The 12Z NAM continues to be the model with the best hope for a dusting of snow here tomorrow morning. It is printing 0.16″ of liquid for Birmingham, which could mean about 1 inch on the ground (grassy areas).

The 12Z RPM now shows a little snow accumulation for Northeast Alabama:

Moisture still looks very limited for this event, but there is still some hope for a dusting, or a little light accumulation in spots tomorrow morning. It will be fun to see how this whole thing plays out…

Much more coming up later this afternoon with the Weather Xtreme video… stay tuned…
