Yea, pretty crazy pattern that we are stuck in, they will probably see record snowfall totals. The SE ridge is holding strong and we will probably stay in the limbo land but I think we will see things turn in our favor around the 20th +/-

Bubba, when do you think the models may pick up on the mjo movement? This is new territory that we haven't seen in a long time. More of a typical niño with coupling between ocean and atmosphere it looks like

Re: Texas Winter 2018-2019
Does TxDOT not follow the forecasts? Why put stuff down before even a watch or advisory?

Why do I try and look busy at my job, when I’m not? TXDOT hasn’t had much to work with in N Texas lately.
