The blast of wintry weather impacted areas to the east and southeast of DFW overnight Monday, covering much of the area with a thin blanket of snow or ice.
A Winter Storm Warning remains in effect for counties to the east and south of Dallas until noon Tuesday. This is the area most likely to have additional impacts from light snow through the morning hours.
The biggest concern for the rest of the day through Wednesday will be the very cold air in place. Temperatures will struggle to reach 30 degrees Tuesday and will drop well into the teens Tuesday night. NBC 5's Grant Johnston said the forecast low of 14 will come close to the record of 12.
