Re: Texas Fall 2017
Well, at least for today in my area, it has been a pretty low bust. The high busted way low yesterday and the original forecast low was 44 and it already down to 40.

Re: Texas Fall 2017
Made it down to 38 at my place. When i saw the clear skies and calm winds yesterday evening I had a feeling I'd see the 30s today.

Re: Texas Fall 2017
Euro has DFW pushing mid 80s again next Friday... I wouldn't be surprised to see 90 again the way things have been going.

Hope not. FWD doesn't have any 80's through the 7-day, and advertises a cold front next weekend.
Before this year, no 90+ days had been recorded in November. We've had 3 so far!

Re: Texas Fall 2017
GFS does show above normal before frontal passage next weekend. MId 70s to near 80 is above normal for it. Then it's becoming more apparent a significant front will come Thanksgiving week. Still slightly back and forth but the colder solutions have become more numerous. Perhaps highs in the 40s and 50s with lows in the 30s via said trof.
500mb with blocking over Northeastern Canada slows the jet stream and likely more fronts with brief warm ups in between thereafter. In truth, the pattern could look worse and it could be worse but doesn't look that bad. We've actually knocked down November's average quite a bit from where it was

Re: Texas Fall 2017
All that ridging in the Northeast Pacific has warmed the GOA. We may not win the small battles in the short term, but the longer picture is optimistic. In due time it will pay off. 2013 in November the ridging up there and SST really coupled by late month leading to the false winter storm, and eventually cobblestone ice storm early December

Re: Texas Fall 2017
18z GFS flips from the 12z (sorta) instead of ridge out west, big trough comes in the SW in that kind of pattern Thanksgiving week. Just to show the fluid nature of how a pattern change (blocking setting up) can cause some volatile model runs until said pattern settles. If indeed the blocking is true in Northeastern Canada

Re: Texas Fall 2017
In other news,
Dry and some drought has quietly been spreading. Though this is not all of a surprise given we are moving into what may be a second dip Nina
Long long range, there are very few wet/cool 2nd year Nina summers. They are hot and dry for the most part. Lets hope we get winter this year before that comes in 2018. We haven't seen a truly hot summer since 2012. 2013-2017 had spells of it but nothing wall to wall.

Re: Texas Fall 2017
Whew, I don't think we got above freezing today and It's 24 degrees now. I really wish I lived in a lake effect zone though.

its still fantasy land but the weather apps so far are near normal(around 65/45), the GFS blasts a front through the night before Thanksgiving with near 80 on Wednesday and highs in the 50s on Thanksgiving but again this is fantasy land. There does seem to be signals of some kind of cold front close to Thanksgiving at least.

Portastorm is well acquainted with the lake effect zone. In some winters, SW Austin gets up to 3-4 mm of freezing drizzle when there is a NW flow off of Lake Travis.

Re: Texas Fall 2017
lol... Massive Euro flip for Thanksgiving week. 00z had a big trough sagging into the Rockies looking to setup a cold shot. 12z has a firehouse off the Pacific flooding the west with warm air.
