It's not snowing at my house (yet, I hope) but snow has started to fall in some areas in Southeast Texas and Southwest Louisiana, and further down the Texas coast as reported earlier in other threads. About an hour or so ago, there was one tiny blue dot in the area...now look at the radar!

All day yesterday? What are you talking about?
Anyway, I haven't gotten any snow.
Thanks Cookiely - Merry Christmas!!
There were certain people saying that you guys weren't going to get anything. That's what I was referring to...

To bad for them. There as well was those such as myself who stuck thier neck out a week ago that called for this and stuck with it.
The problem is some people like to model hug to much and go with every run they see be it a good one or a bad one. Models are great tool's for forecasters but they are just that. A TOOL. As i am sure some here will agree there is alot more to it then just the models. Pattern reconition<--(Spelling???) is one of the main things people need to take more note of and if they do and get a good understanding of it i am certain it will help with thier forecasting abilities. Next in line would be to look for trends when dealing with the models which kinda relates to knowing whats happening with the pattern at your location AND elsewhere around the globe. another good thing is making yourself familure with the past weather. Look for a simularity to something that happend a while back or long ago thats going on currently and then you can apply that as well to what may happen in the future and you can compare to what your looking at on the models as well.
It would help as well to get to know whats happening with such things as the PNA, NAO, AO, El'Nino, etc. Plenty of places to go as well to learn about them features which believe it or not have alot of say in our weather be it the Tropics, Artic outbreak, Snowstorm etc.
Anyways i could continue on here but i think you and hopefully everyone else that doesnt know will get what i am saying and hopefully help them understand what all needs to go into weather forecasting. Part of it anyways. Hopefully the S2K forecasters and the other pro Mets on the site will add to it or correct me if i am wrong. But anyways thats what i like to use when i try making predictions like i did last week about the snow in the south that far out.
have a great day!

Well cheer up then because by next week going into the begining of January the trough does look to shift that way. Enjoy it. Cant say for how long yet it will be there. It should be there though long enough for you and other westcoasters to enjoy some active weather.

you can have the stupid trough. No point in it being cold if it's not going to snow.
