Texas Winter 2017-2018

[orangeblood]

Well, I did my best in bringing everyone from NE TX to Austin to SE TX a cold, icy winter. However, I'm afraid there isn't much more I can do as far as winter weather in Texas. Euro ensembles indicate above-normal temps through February, and I'm inclined to agree. My cold-mongering coworker even agrees. Possibly a cold front in early March, but we may have seen our last freeze in Houston.

haha this is the sign we needed to guarantee us a Big Texas Winter Storm at some point over the next 4 weeks, book it!....

Good thinking! Perhaps our resident Heat-turned-Cold Miser is using the proverbial anti-jinx strategy to bring us one great winter storm to end the season.

12z Euro has cut rain totals in half through mid next week, still a couple inches, but hopefully not the start of a drier trend

No cold air to be found

It’s probably a drier trend. Most of the rain looks to be east of Texas.

At this point I feel like they could just do away with the models and hire a fortune teller and have pretty much the same results.

I'm becoming a big proponent of the way they did it before fancy models...

the old looking out the window forecast.

You are free to think whatever you like. However, I feel that my cold powers are weakening.

There is still plenty of rain but the 12z Euro just lined up more closely with the EPS showing 3-4" area wide.

As a reminder, in 2 weeks if there are no immediate threats of winter weather we will move to the Spring thread March 1st for MAM. This will continue our meteorological calendars for each season and general discussion will be closed here.

I think that's gonna happen. This pattern reeks of spring.

[Ralph's Weather]

Every time this year yall go into winter cancel mode the models flip. Plenty of cold to be had and blocking equals cold. I seriously doubt every front will stall over us. This is the season for severe weather one day and snow the next.

[Ralph's Weather]

Haha at the forecasted 67 for today, 58 at 230pm. Mid 70s seem unlikely tomorrow. 40s for Friday, Saturday and maybe Sunday.

"Winter" Over? Did you say ?over?? Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell, no!

I am not in winter over camp by any means!

Just a note of the format we have been using for the thread movements

We actually busted the other way today. 75 here currently. 82 forecasted tomorrow. Too warm for February.

[CaptinCrunch]

Just busting your chops NTWX

I'm down for a cold snowy March....lol

80 degree temps have reached the Red River northwest of D-FW area. 83 in Mineral Wells. There's a small pocket of low clouds east of the D-FW area that's temporarily holding down temps this afternoon. It won't be there tomorrow.

[Tejas89]

DFW has bested the forecast high.. currently 77. Tonight's record hi-low may be in danger (63F).
