A winter storm brought thunder, lightning and sleet to Denton on Monday.
The University of North Texas closed as a precaution before the bulk of the bad weather moved across the area.
"It looks good, but it doesn't feel good," UNT student Max Santana said. "I'm not a fan of the snow," UNT student Mak Martin said. "I'm thinking it's the same as Texas always has been; bipolar."
At the Denton Courthouse Square, cars slid, and some even got stuck on the sleet covering the road. One struggling driver got a hand from a passer-by as he pushed the car up a slight incline to get going again.

"Because of the sleet and the snow; whatever is getting ready to come at us," Jupiter House Manager Kimberly Almeida said. "It hit very quickly...I went to the story and I came back and it was white all over the place!"
