Could North Texas see snow this weekend?

One model has the potential for flakes dipping as far south as Interstate 20.

Updated at 11:20 a.m. Thursday with the latest forecast information.

North Texans are in for a wild ride in the next three to four days. The Dallas-Fort Worth area will basically experience all four seasons, including winter. 

Yes, winter. It will begin as rain, with the potential for severe thunderstorms, and then wrap up with winter weather, possibly including some snowflakes with the rain.

The winter weather potential will mainly be confined to along the Red River on Saturday morning. 

Once the main area of low pressure moves to the northeast, there will be an area of wrap-around moisture that will sink south into North Texas.  

The question is how far south does the moisture go and how fast does the cold air arrive? One model has the potential for flakes dipping as far south as Interstate 20.  

The good news is temperatures are expected to stay above freezing and ground temps are warm as well.
