This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for North and Central Texas.

.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight.
Light freezing rain is possible west of a line from Bonham to Fort
Worth to Lampasas through this morning. Ice may accumulate on
roadways in this region, particularly on bridges and overpasses.
While mostly rain is expected this afternoon due to slightly warmer
temperatures, additional freezing rain will develop in the same area
tonight as temperatures fall back below freezing.

Some heavy rainfall is possible southeast of a Temple to Canton line
through tonight which may aggravate ongoing flooding of rivers,
creeks, and streams.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Thursday through Tuesday.
Periods of freezing rain will be possible west of a line from Bonham to
Denton to Lampasas on Thursday morning. Light ice accumulations are
possible in this area which could result in travel impacts. Rain and
freezing rain will transition to snow or a rain/snow mix in this
area through the morning hours before expanding eastward towards the
I-35 corridor by midday. Snow may continue to mix with rain across
parts of North Texas through Thursday afternoon or evening. Some snow
accumulations may occur generally northwest of a Cisco to
Gainesville line, and amounts as high as 1-3 inches may be possible.
While some snow is possible across the rest of North Texas as well,
surface temperatures are expected to be too warm for substantial snow
accumulations. The lingering rain/snow mix will taper off from west
to east late Thursday night.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
Spotter activation is not expected at this time.
