DFW actually hit 92, breaking the record

Interesting setup yesterday with Waco only getting to 83.

Another very warm day today. GFS is actually looking a little better with a decent line of thunderstorms (maybe squall?) late week

Sunday Night looks possibly interesting too? That one kind of just popped up.

and then definitely some kind of system next Tuesday/Wednesday. Still a bit out there, but if the GFS is right(and FWD is leaning towards it as of now), could be a mess when my parents land next Wednesday.

Still very active as April begins

Ahhh, the springtime memories.

Seven years ago today on Sunday, March 21, 2010 right here in Denison.

Five inches of white fluff on top of the wildflowers. And my backyard deck.

The Euro Weeklies continue to show a very wet pattern moving forward. April is looking very wet.

I'll never forget that one. I was in Mumbai, India on a business trip and watching the radar while the family slept back home in DFW. They had no idea what they were going to awake to.

GFS is trending west with heavier totals for Friday across DFW but the Euro is trending east? Who you got your money on?

Rooting for the GFS. Just glad that we will see a good spring time squall line come through. Cool us off a bit too.

Same here. I don't have any proof but it just seems like the new Euro has struggled with precipitation placement. I wouldn't be surprised to see it shift towards the GFS here. Also, the models are in agreement that the Gulf is fully recovered by the end of the month and open for biz. Systems should start seeing better and better moisture to work with. Storm chasers won't like it because we'll probably see a return of days being dominated by HP supercells.

FWD also said earlier about next week's storm they think the gfs will win out because the euro is too fast and progressive so it'll be an interesting test to see if the same applies here

Definitely pulling for the gfs though

I know it's twc but their app has storm chances everyday starting next week through the 15 day forecast

Which is kind of funny because the GFS is typically known as being the one that is too progressive.

Friday is squally weather, Sunday if that pans out could be more big hail and some tornado threat in N TX and Oklahoma. Perhaps more super cell tracks.

Which is a lot better than what looked like a potential outbreak on Friday. It would have been awkward being in a room with many meteorologist, meteorology students, Storm Chasers, and Dr. Greg Forbes while a severe weather outbreak was occurring.(Although there could be some tornadoes further east if Supercells form.)

850 u wind anomalies in the equatorial Pacific shows the current trade burst should be the last for awhile this coming week. Some weak west winds show up near nino 3.4 which perhaps helps the idea of a wet April as mentioned by some in this thread forthcoming

Actually, it might have been cool.

Even ignoring the surface depictions, next week's southwest shortwaves look potent. If you were to draw up a map for heavy flooding rains, pretty close.

Perhaps if it were a regular gathering, in fact that would have been loads of fun. But our symposium is rather organized and speakers have been preparing speeches for weeks. I think if an outbreak were to occur there would be a lot of distracted people in the room probably including myself.

Not so much the cool as knocking the pollen pods out of the trees and washing that mess all away. I'm tired of having a runny nose and a green car.

I'm starting to consider heading out for my first chase day of the Spring this Sunday. I still have lots of time to consider a target area (or if I even want to go), but the 12Z GFS has a notable tongue of higher Theta-E extending up into the area of better shear near Hillsboro. Combined with the fact that I know that I can get there in time even leaving at 11 at the earliest, that seems like a good starting point for me.
