Re: Texas Winter 2018-2019
That’s just a cruel thing to bring up and rub in our face Harris
And I agree with spencer. All winter it’s always been 2 weeks away and zilch. I’ve been seeing flashbacks of last year when we were hitting 80 by mid February. Believe we’re well on our way to seeing another early brutal summer.

In all honesty after next week models are not trending well if you want winter.

The mjo on the ecmwf today is going to phase 7 it seems. Not sure it can make phase 8-2. This is a big change from last few days

We'll see winter again at some point, I just don't believe it's this year. People truly underestimate the power of a Super Nino and really just ENSO impacts in general.

We won’t see winter again until Jerry gets to host another Super Bowl.

Exactly what I’ve been saying. Models aren’t even getting these temperatures overnight right the past couple of days—off by multiple degrees too, in some cases almost ten. Sure, our luck hasn’t been great and this winter hasn’t been what it was hyped up to be, but if I can’t trust models for what’s gonna happen tomorrow night, I sure can’t trust them for what’s gonna happen the rest of February based off of today’s trends. Lot’s of winter left folks—I saw Haris’s post about 5 years ago today with wintry weather in STX and CTX in a year that saw like 7 days with winter events—note that most of them were in February. One of the best weeks of the millennium in terms of snow events for DFW happened in 2015...at the end of February. And, it was followed up by even more snow that March. The most amount of snow in 24 hours for DFW? February of 2010. The crazy super bowl week of 2011? February. This month is statistically the best month for snow in Texas.
January was supposed to be dry and yes, there might be a warmup—but most winters, especially nowadays, have warmups. It just doesn’t make sense to give up on it now. Maybe I’ll look back on this post at the end of the year and we will have gotten absolutely nothing and life will go on. Or I could look back at this time where everyone started to give up hope and laugh about calling this winter over when unbeknownst to us we have the best February of all time right ahead. Is either outcome likely? Who knows. Is either outcome possible? With where we’re at, yes. So don’t give up hope just based off of a few things because absolutely no one knows what’s gonna happen.

Re: Texas Winter 2018-2019
Very mild 60s and 70s on the GFS towards the mid and long ranges, wxman57's wall may work!
Even hints at severe weather lol

I have quite a few videos and photos I would post here of past storms over the last 5 years, but I think people would get mad. I had forgotten just how much snow we had. My boots were disappearing into the snow. I have video of me ice skating on the streets and passing a hockey puck back and forth. I was even able to ride my handed down 1950s Radio Flyer down a hill. What has happened to where we don't get these anymore?
