Event-total (tonight through Sunday) ice accumulations will be 0.25" - 0.5" for a majority of the area, with slightly higher amounts forecast for parts of East Texas. Expect multi-inch sleet totals by Sunday morning as well, especially I-20 northward.

DALLAS - @TxDOT managed lanes will be closing after the morning rush hour until further notice due to anticipated #winter weather. This will allow crews to focus on main lane clearing operations. Plan your route/extra travel time ahead of evening rush hour. #txwx #dfwtraffic
