LOL.. You know, I peek in on occasions see the latest happenings with you all out there. I swear, every time I look at the models, they are showing shot of wintry precip west of DFW, I have seen shifts to the south of DFW on the EURO, and now they are showing a shot of wintry precip east of DFW for next week. LOL..

You all out in the DFW metroplex area, if you all do not get a good snow event within the next week with what I am looking at with the models. then Mother Nature must have a curse or something on you all LOL... I hope you all there get the snow to happen! I really do!!

Heck, at least you all are seeing some winter cold at times, something we can't buy here in Northeast Florida. The temp BTW reached 89.3 degrees for the max today at my home station, not only a record for today, but by a whisker, just missed seeing the earliest 90 degree temp I could have recorded here today for so early in the calendar year! Unbelievable!!

San Angelo NWS says it right.....

Different story for mid week however, with models in decent
agreement on a much colder air mass settling into the area as a
1040mb+ surface high drops out of Canada and into the Plains.
Precip chances look to increase by Tuesday night and continue
through Thursday as low level moisture overruns the boundary.
Models have their disagreements on details, with the GFS showing a
more shallow overrunning and warm advection pattern just above
the surface, leading to a sounding that looks more like rain or
maybe freezing rain. ECMWF has a deeper cold air mass, allowing
the precip to mainly be a sleet/snow concern. As we saw last week,
models struggle getting the thermal profile correct in the first
period, much less this far out. Not going to sweat the details at
this point, but will continue to mention some sort of wintry mix
possible in the climatologically favored areas mainly north of a
San Angelo to Abilene line. Obviously, temperatures look to be
much colder during this time period as well.

What are the chances Delkus creeps on this board and did that to troll us........ why else would he make that map for next week and show it tonight. Unless it's just a model output.

Looks like he is showing the 12z Euro which had an odd precip type depiction, esp. when you look at soundings.

Not a good overnight trend when you see the Euro ENS and GFS ENS flip roles, GEFS is a terrible teammate to have on your team! :roll:

Which website has the postage stamp thumbnails of the ECMWF ensemble? I use College of Dupage to look at the GEFS ensemble but they dont have the ECMWF on there.

Of interest in the 12Z GFS, in the 10-14 day time frame, there's a lot of rain in Texas :double:

That's > 5 days out, so don't count on it.

you have to pay $$$ for the EPS generally wxbell or wxmodels

anyway looking at the 12z Euro Wednesday is rain and south of DFW, no snow out west

Thursday some snow in far West Texas generally around San Angelo and west but its dry in DFW and rain is to the south
