A significant winter storm affected the northern half of Northeast Texas on Sunday, January 9th. This storm system moved out of the Texas Hill Country late on January 8th and moved into the Southern Plains and Lower Mississippi Valley during the day Sunday, January 9th. An area of low pressure at the surface and in the lower levels of the atmosphere developed offshore the Southeast Texas Gulf Coast and remained offshore the Louisiana Gulf Coast during the day of the event. This low pressure system helped to feed moisture into the region from the south. Initially, the lower levels of the atmosphere were very dry, but lift provided by the storm system helped to moisten and cool the lower levels of the atmosphere such a combination of freezing rain, sleet and snow were the result across the northern half of Northeast Texas. The transition from freezing rain and sleet to all snow was fairly quick during the morning of January 9th across the region. The storm system exited the region late on January 9th but not before dumping some impressive freezing rain, sleet and snowfall totals across the southern half of the state. Generally, one quarter to one half inch of freezing rain and sleet was reported initially across the northern half of Northeast Texas with the snow being the predominant precipitation type during the afternoon and evening of January 9th. Following are some snowfall totals for January 9th across Northeast Texas: 8 inches in Detroit, 7 inches in New Boston, 6 inches in Clarksville, 5 inches in Mineola and Mount Pleasant, 4 inches in Atlanta, Daingerfield, Jefferson and Mount Vernon, 3 inches in Carthage, Gilmer, Longview, Marshall, Pittsburg and Tyler, 2 inches in Henderson and 1 inch in Jacksonville. There were numerous reports of traffic accidents across the northern half of Northeast Texas
