Sleet that arrived Thursday morning turned into snow just after 10:15 a.m. near Dallas Fort Worth International Airport. About 1.5 inches of snow and sleet accumulated at DFW Airport, according to the weather service.

Today March 20, 2022
Spring season started. It starts from March 20 to June 20.
Plano will be very beautiful during the springtime.
Temperature is relatively warm during this time. With a low of 50° Fahrenheit and a high of about 90° to 95° Fahrenheit , it can get chill or even hot. It is primarily chilled throughout spring, but it can get warmer and hotter by end of the spring season. When those warm days come, make sure to get outside and enjoy the weather!
The weather during spring is very different. It will be cloudy in Plano during March, April, and May. Precipitation is actually more common in spring than during summer. The highest chances of heavy rain happen in the middle of May! Of course, Daylight Savings Time happens every spring, so the days will start to get longer, and the nights shorter.
Finally, the cold can be over, and the sunny, long days are here.
