Important Takeaways:

• Yet another winter storm is heading for Texas, and this one could bring more dangers than Winter Storm Blair.
• The second major winter storm of 2025 is expected to have a more southern impact before turning towards the Northeast, AccuWeather warns. Cities including Dallas, Nashville and Atlanta have chances of facing snow and ice in the coming days.
• Unlike the polar vortex, which brought arctic air down from Canada, this storm is predicted to form over Texas beginning Tuesday night through Thursday. Areas of snow, sleet, freezing rain and rain will join.
• “Exactly how quickly the storm comes together, tracks and gains strength will determine the magnitude of the snow and ice that extends from the I-20 and I-40 corridors from Texas and Oklahoma to Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Tennessee, Georgia, the Carolinas, and Virginia from late this week to this weekend,” AccuWeather’s Monday afternoon update says.
• This week’s snowstorm “could deliver more than a year’s worth of snow to Dallas,” AccuWeather reports. The city’s historical average annual snowfall is 1.6 inches, including sleet, the forecaster says.
• Between 9 p.m. Wednesday and 7 a.m. Friday, Dallas has a 54% chance of seeing three to six inches of snow and a 42% chance of seeing one to three inches, according to AccuWeather’s predictions.
• Due to the unusually low temperatures in Texas this week, ice poses additional dangers in this storm. Conditions will be especially precarious in northeastern portions of the state Wednesday night and Thursday. Travel will be hazardous, and the additional weight on trees and powerlines could result in power outages.
