Re: Texas Winter 2018-2019
LOL, this thread parallels college fan bases during recruiting season...
"17 year old X committed to my favorite school! What an upstanding young man and hard worker"
**17 year old X decommits.
***"That kid is a prick and his parents are horrible parents. Does commitment mean anything?"
GFS shows lots of snow. "It's going to happen, you know because GFS has a slightly better score than the Euro this year."
GFS loses it and Euro picks it up. "Well the Euro historically is much better. The GFS is full of poop."
Euro loses it and the Canadian is the only one left showing "Euro and GFS are off its meds. This 2 star Canadian model is going to nail it this time"

Hahaha yes! And then when the storm finally hits and it snows but you only get 1/2 of what models depicted
*Y finally commits to good guys but recruiting service drops Y in final rankings, screwing the good guys again

the Euro has some snow overspreading at the very end of the run further out than the FV GFS
One thing I have noticed with the long range snow maps that nail DFW is the large snow hole near Kansas, Nebraska, and eastern Colorado. It would be nice if that could fill in at some point. Anyway, the snow will probably disappear in today's runs.
I’ve been complaining about this all winter. Where is the snow in that region? They seriously can’t buy a storm there this winter! We need a solid snowpack to our north.
My parents in KS have had close to average snowfall for the first time in many years, but western KS has struggled at times this winter. Much of it was early winter as well, no snowpack now.

I hope it’s okay next Thursday since I’m pulling kids for a yearbook work day field trip. It can snow all it wants after school next Thursday though.

My sincerest apology, it was one about DFW snow suddenly disappearing from a model run. I guess I just took it as being sarcastic.
But you can understand my edginess...rumor has it that there’s a Heat Miser on the loose!

No problem, I was just stating a fact. Didn't intend to have it sound sarcastic. It's hard to tell one's tone from a typed message. It's hard for the D-FW area to get snow without the passage of an upper-level low overhead. Typically, all the moisture is going to be farther south, closer to the coast. The models have been doing a terrible job at predicting snow in Texas this winter. FV3 goes with a foot or two while the GFS has warm temps at the same time (only a slight exaggeration). I don't know about this "new and improved" GFS. It's not looking too good with winter weather, and I hear it is worse than the GFS for tropical cyclones from 5 days out.

Re: Texas Winter 2018-2019
18z FV3, looks like most of the "snow" south of a line from Alexandria, LA over to Waco is probably not real, North LA looks like mostly freezing rain, then North of I20 heading West into Texas would be a mix bag of sleet/snow.
