Winter Weather Woes in Bryan-College Station

Bryan-College Station has found itself in the grips of a chilly winter storm, as severe weather has led to some adjustments around town, especially at HEB stores. Just when we thought we had seen it all, winter shows it still has a few tricks up its sleeve!

Late Opens for HEB

First off, let’s talk about our beloved HEB stores. Due to this **frigid** weather, they’ll be opening late on Tuesday, January 21st. They’ll close up shop a bit early at 10 p.m. on Monday, January 20th and won’t be back in business until 10 a.m. the following day. So, if you’re in need of groceries, plan accordingly!

Winter Storm Warning in Full Effect

As the ice continues to fall, a Winter Storm Warning has officially been issued for most of the Brazos Valley, remaining in place through the early evening on January 21st. We’re talking about cold temperatures in the 30s, with ominous cloud cover rolling in, signaling that the weather is only about to get more interesting.

What to Expect with the Snow

Starting Monday evening, the precipitation kicked off with sleet, graupel, and light flurries, transitioning into full snow overnight. This has residents quite curious about how much snow we might see by the time it’s all said and done. Forecasts suggest we can expect **snowfall accumulations** ranging between 1.0 to 3.0 inches across the Central Brazos Valley, with possibly higher totals to the south and east. Make sure to grab your winter gear if you head out!

Travel Considerations

For those thinking about traveling, let’s just say you might want to hit the brakes on those plans. Travel concerns are anticipated to persist from the previously mentioned Monday evening all the way through the first half of Wednesday, January 22nd. If you thought you were in the clear after the snow stops, think again! Wednesday morning is expected to kick off with frigid temperatures dipping into the teens, though there is good news on the horizon as temperatures are predicted to warm above freezing later in the day, with some sunshine peeking through!

School Closures Ahead

It’s not just the weather keeping everyone cozy indoors. Both Bryan ISD and College Station ISD have opted to cancel classes for Tuesday, January 21st, due to the expected winter weather chaos. Additionally, ILTexas Schools in the College Station area will be shutting their doors from January 22nd to January 23rd. So, kids, enjoy that unexpected break!

Road Safety Matters

Let’s not forget about the crucial role of the Brazos County Road and Bridge Department and TxDOT, who are tirelessly working around the clock to keep roads clear and safe. They have treated over 3,000 miles of state-maintained roads in the Bryan district already to combat the icy conditions. Treatments include brine (a saltwater mixture) and might also involve magnesium chloride to keep bridges and overpasses safer for travel.

Driving Precautions

For anyone daring enough to venture out, remember to slow down and adapt your driving to the current road conditions, rather than sticking to the usual speed limits. Road crews remain vigilant, monitoring and treating the high-traffic roads and bridges.

Stay Safe and Cozy!

As this winter storm continues to unfold, it’s essential to stay informed, plan ahead, and keep safety first. Whether you stay snug at home or hit the ice-covered roads, remember to keep those warm blankets close and a hot cup of cocoa in hand!
