Unfortunately for you guys down in Dallas it still seems that the MOS guidance is way too conservative. It is likely going to be much colder for you guys than what it is showing. The trend is toward colder (and wetter) though, so things are definitely going in the right direction.
Thanks for laying it out, but I agree that it's probably way too conservative right now, I guess it could possibly stay like it is, but I just don't see how considering that the high is so strong, and since we've been seeing stronger cold fronts it seems like in a line now for the past few weeks. It also always seems like they don't predict the real cold till one or two days out. As evidence by the past few days.
