Re: Texas Fall 2024

I really don’t see anything cold coming anytime soon. Maybe seasonal to above average.

Re: Texas Fall 2024
19 inches of snow in Denver.

Buddy of mine lives in Colorado Springs and he said they had a foot of dry power. It's the most he's seen this early since moving back 2 yrs ago. But he also said they had the perfect setup for it, so it was definitely not the norm.

Re: Texas Fall 2024
NWS FTW LONG TERM... /Issued 242 AM CST Sat Nov 9 2024/
/Sunday Onward/
Zonal flow aloft will prevail through the extended forecast
period, leading to unwavering sensible weather through most of the upcoming week. A stalled frontal boundary will remain draped to our southeast, with low-level flow heavily influenced by the wandering Rafael in the western Gulf. This tropical cyclone will maintain predominantly offshore flow heading into the workweek, preventing noteworthy moisture return. As a result, by the time the next Central Plains
shortwave arrives on Wednesday, moisture quality locally will be too scant to support precipitation, and a dry passage of its associated weak cold front likely. The low rain chances previously in the forecast for midweek have been fully removed with this morning`s forecast issuance.
Otherwise, a slow moderation of temperatures can be expected through the extended forecast, with highs mostly in the 70s and lows in the upper 40s and 50s. Wednesday`s weak cold frontal passage will only knock a few degrees off of highs, with a lack of appreciably cooler post-frontal air present. Temperatures should easily remain above seasonal normals, with fairly light winds and no appreciable rain chances until at least next weekend.

Re: Texas Fall 2024
Has anyone heard from sphelps8681? Just north of Beaumont, in the Lumberton area, they got a foot of rain overnight with parts getting 16". There were high water rescues going on. It's crazy as the heavy rain just sat over the same areas for hours and hours and hours. I'm maybe 10 miles away and only got a couple of inches.
Part of I-10 in Jefferson County was closed for several hours.

Re: Texas Fall 2024

Re: Texas Fall 2024
Next FROPA looks to occur around the 18th, and thats the one that could kick start a switch to a much colder regime heading into thanksgiving, nothing like a warm turkey, pumpkin pie and cold weather!

Pay attention to the euro stuff because they have a good record compared to the gfs imo. When euro ens show any teleconnections favoring cold, it's a good chance it gets cold

Re: Texas Fall 2024
At least it seems plausible to get genuinely chilly weather when the front comes through on a 70 degree day instead of an 88 degree day.

The Pacific may look better in about 10 days. A poleward NPAC ridge would allow cold air to build in the source region.

That's what we want to see is a poleward npac ridge instead of flat this winter. I like our chances if we can get that at times. 12zgfs was a pretty cold run.

Re: Texas Fall 2024
Looking at the past few GEFS runs including the 12z today, the trend has been toward a more poleward extension of the NPAC Ridge into Alaska, not seeing the trough there anymore on the 12z run, i have moderate confidence (60%) that much colder weather will be coming just in time for thanksgiving or just before it
