Another variation of the limitless possibilities. The Pacific has a few things to workout before the models can start to lock in on a solution.

GFS starts at 4am, 10am, 4pm, 10pm central time.
Euro at 11:30am and pm.
Those are approximately when the models start, check around an hour later to get the full output.

0z GFS will be running here in the next half hour. The period we are looking at should be fully on the table by 10 to 10:30

Re: Texas Winter 2016-2017
A quick look without a lot of analysis says Fri.-Sat. could be very interesting in the cold and precip categories. Not looking like we will get much above freezing on Friday and if the models are underestimating the depth and or strength of the cold we may end up with some winter precip during that time period. Still a little bit too far out to put a lock on it yet, but the trend is definitely there keep it within the realm of probability. JMHO. There are others on here much better at analyzing the models than I am.Cpv17 wrote:Can anyone tell me what the Euro shows for SE TX temps and precip wise?

0z GFS looks like it's going to be a big change from previous runs. Energy is a lot slower coming out of the west so far through 120 hours.

Re: Texas Winter 2016-2017
GFS much further south/much weaker with the Wednesday energy. Just a little stripe of rain between DFW and Austin, last run had widespread snow in Oklahoma

Re: Texas Winter 2016-2017
Wow, the GFS went to the solution the Canadian showed a few runs back...the cut off solution should probably be on the table at this point, which would take the southern plains winter storm off the table

Re: Texas Winter 2016-2017
Energy is finally starting to move east across Utah on Friday. Will it be cold enough for frozen precip this run?

DFW finally hits 32 Friday morning yayyyy. No precip really anywhere close.
Rain in East Texas, snow in Kansas and Arkansas... no precip in between Friday.

0Z Canadian is the cutoff solution too. Windshield wipers and back to the drawing board? 
GFS is hardly an arctic blast, shunts most of it to the north and towards lakes.

The cut off solution seems to be backed up by the 0Z NAM as well...

Yeah what a big shift with the 0z runs so far. Will the Euro hold suit?
