Fri Jan 10 17:10:00 UTC 2025: ## Local News Reporter Wins Whiteboard Sledding Race as North Texas Snowfall Falls Short of Predictions
**Dallas, TX** – While North Texas received less snow than anticipated overnight, one FOX 4 reporter stole the show. Shannon Murray triumphed over neighborhood children in an East Dallas sledding race, her unconventional sled crafted from a whiteboard.
The FOX 4 weather team reported varied snowfall across the region. Areas north of Highway 182, including Gainesville, Sherman, and Bonham, saw the heaviest accumulation, exceeding 6 inches. Wise, Denton, and Collin counties received 3 to 6 inches, while Fort Worth and North Dallas saw 1 to 3 inches. South Dallas received less than an inch.
Meteorologist Evan Andrews explained the inconsistent snowfall, stating that the forecast proved unexpectedly variable across different locations. While some areas received the predicted heavier snowfall on Thursday, overnight accumulation remained light for many. No significant additional snowfall is anticipated today, with only a few light flakes possibly falling early Friday morning.
The unexpected light snowfall didn’t dampen everyone’s spirits. Murray’s whiteboard sledding victory provided a fun anecdote amidst the less-than-predicted winter weather. The snow from Thursday remains on the ground in many areas, providing limited opportunities for winter activities despite the disappointing snowfall totals.
