the models this time? 
They are once again showing some rather cold(for us)_weather over the weekend. Houston is shown dipping into the 20's 2x while further east NO is shown below freezing for over 48 hours! No precip with this burst of cold air though. 
This was not showing on the earlier runs today. What tipped me was watching the "local on the eights" forecast for Houston on TWC and they show us down to 26f friday and 20f saturday am!!! I don't believe that!! But I will continue to check out the models and the weather itself. Even though the models are a very useful tool we must all remember our areas climatology and other variables and just plain watch what is happening outside when we try to forecast the weather!
More later as the scenario unfolds. 8) :n00b:
