What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this winter storm warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Fort Worth, TX wrote its last area forecast discussion before this winter storm warning went out at Jan 9, 5:06 AM CST, 8 hours 24 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Jan 9, 5:06 AM CST, 8 hours 24 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Fort Worth TX 506 AM CST Sat Jan 9 2021 ...New Short Term, Aviation... .SHORT TERM... /NEW/ Update: Other than some minor cloud cover and hourly temp/dew point adjustments, no changes were made to the short term portion of the forecast. (see discussion below) 79 Previous Discussion: /Through Saturday Night/ Brief ridging aloft and high pressure at the surface will result in cool, dry and quiet weather overnight through Saturday with lows tonight from the upper 20s to the lower 30s and highs Saturday from the middle 40s to the lower 50s. After a mostly clear night, clouds will increase from west to east Saturday as an upper trough deepens across the west. The trough is progged to develop into a closed low overnight Saturday while tracking across West Texas. Most of the precipitation associated with this system will affect the Permian Basin, South Plains and Panhandle Saturday night, but a mix of rain and snow should start to move into the western and southwestern zones overnight. It still appears that snow (or a winter mix) will be possible across much of the region on Sunday (see long term discussion below). Therefore, we will maintain the Winter Storm Watch in its current configuration for now, with possible adjustments on Saturday. 79 && .LONG TERM... /Issued 336 AM CST Sat Jan 9 2021/ /Sunday Onward/ In collaboration with neighboring offices, no changes or upgrades were made to the current Winter Storm Watch with this forecast package. It is most likely areas along and west of U.S. Highway 281 will require a Winter Storm Warning. However, there is still uncertainty on where heavier bands of snow will set up elsewhere within the Watch area, which makes it difficult to say which counties would require a Warning vs. an Advisory at this time. Regardless, residents should complete any preparations by this evening as measurable snowfall and hazardous travel conditions seem likely on Sunday across portions of North and Central Texas. By Sunday morning, ongoing precipitation across West Texas will spread east toward North and Central Texas. Although temperatures may be just above freezing near the surface during the morning hours, falling precipitation should aid in cooling the lower levels of the atmosphere to support a transition to snow. As a result, high temperatures on Sunday have been lowered slightly from guidance. A transition from a cold rain or rain/snow mix to full snow will occur initially across the Big Country during the early morning hours, by mid to late morning along the I-35 corridor, and closer to early afternoon across East Texas. The main challenges with the forecast are the potential for heavier bands of snow setting up across portions of North and Central Texas and total snowfall accumulations. As we are able to analyze high resolution data, there is increasing confidence on bands of heavier snow setting up somewhere across the Big Country and Central Texas (areas within the Watch). Some guidance extends this potential further north (as far north as a Bowie to Dallas- Fort Worth to Athens line), which is possible given where high resolution data depicts pockets of frontogenetical forcing and steepening lapse rates. Based on what we know, we expect accumulations upwards of 2" across the Big Country and Central Texas, with amounts closer to 4-6" (and localized higher amounts) west of U.S. Highway 281. Forecast snow accumulations along and north of a Bowie to Dallas-Fort Worth to Canton line are around or less than 1.5" and decrease further north, but these values may change as we determine where bands of heavier snow set up closer to the event. HREF members highlight the potential for a large swath of at least 2-4" snow accumulation across most of the region, which will be something to keep an eye on as new model data arrives through the day. The system will exit the region late Sunday night, leaving North and Central Texas beneath overcast skies. Cloud cover will decrease from west to east through Monday afternoon. Monday night will be the coldest night of the week with lows in the 20s region wide due to excellent radiational cooling. Dry weather is expected through the work week with highs gradually warming into the upper 50s and lower 60s by the end of the week. Garcia && .AVIATION... /NEW/ /12Z TAFs/ VFR through tonight with a northeast wind less than 10 knots. A thin layer of moisture above the decoupled boundary layer may result in a few clouds around 2000 ft this morning, but ceilings are unlikely. Otherwise, expect increasing high clouds through the day as a low pressure system approaches from the Four Corners region. Ceilings will lower overnight through Sunday morning as the low pressure system tracks across West Texas, but will likely remain above 4000 ft though mid morning Sunday. Lower ceilings (MVFR) along with some precipitation will approach all TAF sites just before midday. Precipitation will likely begin as mix of light rain and light snow, but should transition to all snow by midday. For now we will include -RASN in the extended portion of the DFW TAF starting at 16Z Sunday. The wind will continue from the northeast/north at speeds generally less than 10 knots. 79 && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS... Dallas-Ft.
