Q: How do you cure a case of the cold and rainy Monday blues? A: Remember that the "Boys of Summer" begin play in just a few weeks. We may be striking out with the weather here, but it is sunny and warm in Surprise, AZ where the Texas Rangers are getting ready for the upcoming season. Better days are not far away, Weather peeps.

Original post Looks like Mother Nature is still causing havoc for workers trying to take down those massive building wraps that advertised the NBA All-Star game. I snapped this photo a little while ago just as a cold drizzle started falling in downtown Dallas. Kind of hard to tell from my camera phone image, but crews were up on the side of the Bank of America building at the time. The workers appear to be gone now. Looks like parts of the giant Dirk Nowitzki and LeBron James will loom over downtown a little longer. Updated @ 4:45 p.m. The workers did indeed call it a day, according to my pal and DMN photojournalist Michael Ainsworth. Michael's professional work is below my amateur attempt. Thanks, Michael.

Thanks to John Mow of Plano for sending me this funny photo. He called it his "Texas Weathervane." The contraption will see some activity today as 10 to 15 mph north winds start bringing in cooler air this afternoon. Got a funny or impressive weather photo? E-mail it to me. See other reader photos in our Weather gallery.

Sandwiched between fronts (Friday and Monday) that will bring more rain and cold (but no predicted snow), is a Saturday forecast calling for sunny skies, temps near 60 and only a slight breeze. How will you spend the day?

Sunny and cool today with possible rain in a few days, but today's sunrise caught my eye and reminded me that spring (March 20) is less than a month away. Who's ready?

Places like DeSoto, Duncanville, and Waxahachie are seeing snow today. DMN photojournalist Vernon Bryant captured the image above in Cedar Hill. However, the 1 to 2 inches forecast for Dallas and Fort Worth has pretty much flaked out. A winter weather advisory for counties north of Dallas has even been removed hours ahead of when it was to expire.

This picture from the TxDOT camera at Campus and I-20 in South Fort Worth pretty much tells the story. Snowflakes are falling, but little is even collecting on grassy areas. The latest map from the National Weather Service in Fort Worth reduces the amount of possible snowfall in D-FW to an inch ... and forecasters concede there likely won't be enough snow to break any records today.

What frozen precipitation was spotted before midnight must have been a false alarm of sorts because the storm has still not arrived in the immediate Dallas-Fort Worth area. But it isn't far. You can now see it near Weatherford on the radar. Snowfall predictions of 1 to 2 inches for Dallas-Fort Worth have not changed overnight. Heavier amounts are expected south of Interstate 20. The area is under a winter weather advisory until 3 p.m. ... plus strong north winds make it feel like it is in the upper 20s. So bundle up and be safe out there. Original post at 11:37 p.m., Monday Here's what the NEXRAD radar was showing shortly before midnight. At 11:03 p.m., the National Weather Service in Fort Worth says a mix of rain, sleet and snow was being reported from Waxahachie westward.

So if there's one thing I learned from the great snow storm of 02/11/2010, it's that you guys like to know what's happening in various neighborhoods when weather gets bad. Who doesn't have power? Is such and such road passable? Are stores over there open? Tuesday's snow isn't predicted to rival that of two weeks ago, but we'd still like to test drive a mapping experiment to see if it would be useful in the future. So if and when snow does arrive on Tuesday ... click here and report what's happening in your neck of town. Thanks.
