Texas Winter Cancel

[Ed Mahmoud]

Calm winds and a dewpoint of -4º ( 25 ºF), temps in Houston are going to drop like a rock!

OK, it is probably getting unlikely even Dalhart will have another significant winter weather event.


Dewpoints are below freezing, and winds are getting light, atr Dalhart and Amarillo, but 10 pm temps still above 50ºF, so I'd almost say it is getting late even for significant frosts and freezes.


Maybe a frost tonight in Dalhart, official NWS forecast is 36ºF.


But I am really doubting another December 10th type snow miracle in Houston before late November.

First 90ºF (32º) day of Spring probably means the threat of accumulating snow in Houston is over.

Oh come on, let it die!

I think it was 1993. I was a college student in Austin. February, had an all time monthly record of 99ºF. Drank a few beers with a friend to celebrate. Only slight sadness, missed 100ºF. One week later- freezing drizzle.


Nothing between Texas and the Arctic but barbed wire fence.


I will admit, widespread 90ºF weather like yesterday will heat the ground, and a month past the Equinox, not even cloud cover can completely block the insolation, so accumulating snow is indeed probably done for all of Texas until November.
