12 GFS MOS temp guidance says 41 degrees as the low for Victoria Sunday morning. This means that Corpus Christi is going 13 degrees cooler than the guidance. Impressive!

Yeah..I live to see them take a risk like that...especially since they will be right in the end. As for the 12Z GFS MOS...I can't wait to see it tomorrow. If the 18Z trend can continue for a few runs...then many NWS offices will HAVE to change their tune.Tyler wrote:Extremeweatherguy wrote:Yeah, I noticed that too.

HAS ANYONE SEEN THE 12Z NOGAPS! It is by far the coldest of any model I have seen. It has 850mb temps. down to between -10C and -15C on Sunday. It also has thickness values down to 528hpa. Another intresting thing is that it has a 1036mb High over Texas on Sunday! Could you imagine the radiational cooling. I am in no way saying the NOGAPS will be anywhere close to right...but if it were (-10 to -15C temps.) and clear, windless skies could lead to lows reaching levels not seen in February since the 1800s.

^^Here is a link that shows precip. and thickness, but I can not find one that shows 850mb temps. other than on accuweather.com professional (which I have and got it from).^^

Tyler, I won't be quite so bold as you but I believe that Austin metro will see a low temperature Sunday morning of 30 degrees. The forecasted low is currently 33 degrees. I bet we hit 27 or 28 at my house here in north Austin.
Highs Sunday won't get above 50. Current high progged is 54.
That's as far as I'm going to go!

Thursday - Mostly sunny and cool. Highs in the lower 60s. Light breeze.
Thursday night - Increasing clouds. Lows in the middle to upper 40s areawide.
Friday - Mostly cloudy and breezy. 30% chance of passing showers. Cool. Highs in the lower 60s.
Friday night - Mostly cloudy with a 30% chance of showers. Breezy and chilly. Lows in the upper 30s NW of Houston, to the middle 40s SE of Houston.
Saturday - Mostly cloudy and cold with a stiff north breeze at 10-20mph (gusts to 30mph) and a 20% chance of showers. Highs in the middle 40s areawide.
Saturday night - Partly cloudy and very cold. Winds dying. 10% chance of some wintry precipitation. Lows near 24 NW of Houston, 28 Downtown, and 32 at the coast.

I will be bold thenI'll say 22 for you. Models continue to strengthen the high as it moves in. 0z NAM is encouraging.
Whoa Nellie?! 22 .... aye carumba!![]()
If the Euro verifies, you'll be right.
You mean if the Euro, Canadian, Nogaps, Nam, and JMA verifies, then I'll be right.

My PC was acting up and I thought I double posted ... so I deleted it. Yeah, weird science over here right now.
Speaking of weird science ... the big question is what will the GFS do with its 0z run tonight?
