JOE, Wuzzsup how about that ARTIC air mass??? it will still be 60 here.

Yeah JB loves to HONK but this once I give him credit for this ZERO HONK.

Man that Greenland Block and the 50/50 LOW are gonna get together and PARTY!!! The PV will drop into the Plains and freeze the bejesus outa EVERYONE, even on the Gulf Coast.

Except for yours truly.........I will be out on yet another jebwalk, enjoying the fresh cool bracing arctic weather........happily blasting my Christian worship songs at FULL BLAST on my CD headphones.


BTW..........I just bought a NiMH rechargeable battery recharger at Wal Mart this afternoon. Gotta keep recharging my batteries.........Man, the way I use these batteries during my jebwalks, listening to fine CD music throughout the jebwalk.......IF I were to play dumb and PAY for all the batteries I use, I would go through 10,000 bucks a year just on batteries alone!!!!


EDIT!!! We just fell to 23 degrees!! Man, that temp.....It's just fallin' like a ROCK!!!! WOW!!!! Bring It!!!!

They said 23 for Houston, that's a cold enough airmass to produce snow if we have the precip.

Whoa!!!--that would probably mean teens for us-then all we would need is a little precip for some fun

NWS Atlanta GA

EXTENDED PERIOD LOOKS DRY EXCEPT FOR A SMALL CHANCE NEXT THURSDAY
NIGHT AND EARLY FRIDAY WITH APPROACH OF A COLD FRONT. TEMPERATURES
COOLING OFF AFTER MONDAY AS AN ARCTIC BLAST MOVES OVER AREA.

NWS Jax FL

BUILDING AREA OF COLD AIR NORTH OF THE BORDER LOOKS
TO TAKE A PLUNGE BY WEEKS END. STILL TOO EARLY TO DETERMINE
SOUTHWARD PROGRESSION OF THIS FEATURE.

NWS Huntsville, AL

MAIN STORY WILL BE THE POTENTIAL ARCTIC FRONT MOVING INTO THE AREA
ON DAY 6. THERE APPEARS TO BE SOME CONSENSUS ON THE TIMING AND
STRENGTH OF THE ARCTIC HIGH...ALTHOUGH STILL PLENTY OF TIME FOR
THINGS TO CHANGE. 00Z GFS HAS HINTED AT SOME POTENTIAL FOR "NON-
LIQUID" PRECIP...BUT WILL NOT MENTION IT ATTM...BECAUSE A LOT...AND I
STRESS A LOT...CAN CHANGE OVER THE NEXT 6-7 DAYS (ESPECIALLY IN THE
GFS). 06Z AND 12Z GFS SHOW THIS QUITE WELL...SINCE THEY ARE DRIER
AND NOT QUITE AS COLD FOR THAT TIMEFRAME COMPARED TO THE 00Z RUN.
WILL GO WITH ALL RAIN...AND LET FUTURE RUNS IRON THINGS OUT.

NWS Jackson, MS

AFTER THURSDAY...THE GFS AND GFS-BASED ENSEMBLES ARE NOW POINTING TO
THE PASSAGE OF A SIGNIFICANT ARCTIC COLD FRONT SOMETIME BETWEEN LATE
THURSDAY AND LATE FRIDAY. THIS FRONTAL PASSAGE CORRELATES WITH THE
QUICK INTRUSION OF A POLAR VORTEX FAR SOUTH INTO THE GREAT LAKES
REGION. IF THIS COMES TO PASS THEN THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY
WOULD BE IN STORE FOR THE COLDEST TEMPERATURES OF THE WINTER THUS
FAR NEXT WEEKEND.
