SE TX/SW LA weather: Much cooler and WET after Tuesday

[southerngale]

1989 is one of the analog years being used for this winter. We had a few severe cold blasts that winter but overall it was a mild winter on average.
Tomorrow should be a whole lot cooler than today in SE TX. We set another record high in Houston today with a high of 94f

I could live with that. We got snow on December 22, 1989! Measurable snow.

Btw, I was awakened a few minutes ago by thunder! Getting a thunderstorm right now. Water falling from the sky... a wonderful sound.

We have a Red Flag Warning and Wind Advisory for Thursday. I don't know if it's enough rain to help, but hopefully so.

I can almost smell that chili cooking...

MAIN FORECAST ISSUE IS THE TEMPS THE NEXT FEW DAYS. WILL LIKELY
SEE AN IDEAL RADIATIONAL COOLING NIGHT ON FRIDAY NIGHT. SO EXPECT
TO SEE TEMPS FALL INTO THE MID 30S ACROSS RURAL AREAS IN
CENTRAL ZONES AND ACROSS THE NORTHERN ZONES. ATTM IT DOES NOT
LOOK LIKE IT WILL FREEZE...BUT WILL LIKELY GET CLOSE AT CXO.

Interesting you mentioned 1989-90 winter, which was really cold in December and that turned out to be quite mild. Where did you get that information? I know 1989-90 was Neutral phase of ENSO. I am more thinking this winter is like 1988-89, which was a strong La Nina, which also had a huge freeze that winter, only comparable to 1951.

[SaskatchewanScreamer]

I read someone's forecast here that for Texas to have a cold winter the North had to have a lot of snow. Well Saskatchewan, Canada (more or less directly North of you folks) had quite the storm two days ago (I haven't seen this much snow since I was a child)....take a look at the pictures of Regina, Saskatchewan (about 45 minutes away from my location) posted in this thread: viewtopic.php?f=3&t=105266&hilit=&start=720

Y'all just might get the winter of your dreams (or nightmares)

Good riddance to that cockroach ridge that has deprived us of rain.

[srainhoutx]

Our long boring weather pattern is about to make a 180. It is becoming a bit clearer that we may have some severe weather ahead from Monday afternoon/evening until Tuesday morning across the area. Folks need to pay close attention since it has been a while for this type of set up. Our severe weather folks will likely be very active over the next 36-40 hours.

...THERE IS A SLGT RISK OF SVR TSTMS THIS EVENING INTO TONIGHT FROM
THE ARKLATEX TO S CENTRAL TX...

...ARKLATEX TO S CENTRAL TX LATE THIS EVENING INTO TONIGHT...
A MIDLEVEL SHORTWAVE TROUGH NOW OVER CO WILL DIG SEWD TOWARD CENTRAL
TX BY THE END OF THE PERIOD...IN RESPONSE TO UPSTREAM HEIGHT RISES
OVER THE NRN ROCKIES TODAY. A DEVELOPING COLD FRONT EXTENDING FROM
ERN OK TO CENTRAL TX WILL MOVE SLOWLY SEWD TODAY...AND THEN BEGIN TO
ACCELERATE SEWD TOWARD THE TX COAST TONIGHT IN RESPONSE TO WEAK
CYCLOGENESIS NEAR THE TX/LA BORDER. IN ADVANCE OF THE
FRONT...LOW-LEVEL MOISTURE RETURN IS ALREADY UNDERWAY ACROSS THE NW
GULF COAST WHERE BOUNDARY LAYER DEWPOINTS HAVE INCREASED TO THE
LOW-MID 70S.

WEAK LOW-LEVEL WAA AND CONTINUED MOISTENING WILL SUPPORT THE GRADUAL
DEVELOPMENT OF A FEW THUNDERSTORMS TODAY ACROSS THE UPPER TX COAST
AND SW LA. MORE WIDESPREAD THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT IS EXPECTED
FARTHER NW LATE THIS AFTERNOON/EVENING AS ASCENT DOWNSTREAM FROM THE
AMPLIFYING MIDLEVEL TROUGH OVERSPREADS THE SURFACE FRONT. THE
PRE-FRONTAL ENVIRONMENT FROM THE ARKLATEX SWD INTO ERN AND S CENTRAL
TX WILL BECOME INCREASINGLY UNSTABLE WITH DAYTIME HEATING...SUCH
THAT MLCAPE SHOULD REACH 1500-2500 J/KG. DEEP-LAYER VERTICAL SHEAR
IN THE WARM SECTOR WILL BECOME SUFFICIENT FOR ORGANIZED MULTICELL
CLUSTERS AND A FEW SUPERCELLS...WITHIN A LARGER CONVECTIVE BAND
WHICH WILL EVOLVE LATE THIS EVENING AND OVERNIGHT ALONG THE COLD
FRONT. MODERATE MLCAPE...MIDLEVEL LAPSE RATES AOA 7 C/KM AND
RELATIVELY WEAK LOW-LEVEL SHEAR SUGGEST THAT LARGE HAIL WILL BE THE
MAIN THREAT THIS EVENING...WHILE DAMAGING WINDS WILL BE THE MAIN
THREAT OVERNIGHT AS A RESULT OF STORM INTERACTIONS AND A MORE LINEAR
CONVECTIVE MODE.

HPC:

LIGHT RAIN AND SNOW ASSOCIATED WITH UPPER LEVEL ENERGY CURRENTLY
DROPPING SOUTHEASTWARD ACROSS THE CENTRAL ROCKIES WILL BREAK APART
BY THIS EVENING AS THE UPPER SYSTEM REACHES WEST TEXAS. THE UPPER
ENERGY IS FORECAST TO BE RATHER STRONG...DEEPENING INTO A CLOSED
LOW OVERNIGHT TONIGHT WHICH WILL DROP A STRONG COLD FRONT THROUGH
TEXAS AND PORTIONS OF LOUISIANA. ALTHOUGH TEMPERATURES THROUGHOUT
SOUTH TEXAS WILL STILL BE HOT TODAY...BY MID WEEK HIGH
TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED TO HAVE FALLEN 5 TO 15 BELOW AVERAGE FOR
THE EASTERN HALF OF TEXAS INTO LOUISIANA BEHIND THE COLD FRONT.
COUNTERCLOCKWISE FLOW AROUND THE LOW WILL DRAW GULF MOISTURE
NORTHWARD ALONG THE TEXAS GULF COAST INTO THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI
VALLEY WHICH WILL SUPPORT THE THREAT FOR HEAVY RAIN BEGINNING THIS
EVENING AND LASTING INTO WEDNESDAY.

Jeff's take on the weather this week in SE TX:

Highly active weather period in store for the region

After nearly 6 weeks of dry weather, it all end today/tonight as a strong upper level storm system moves toward the area.

Today:

Upper trough over the northern Rockies will deepen and move SE into TX as it closes off into an upper level low. At the surface strong warm air advection will bring copious amounts of Gulf moisture into the region. Already dewpoints have risen into the low to mid 70’s over the southern half of the area with radar showing isolated to scattered activity along the coast. Moisture will continue to increase today and air mass will become increasingly unstable by late morning into early afternoon supporting the development of scattered showers and thunderstorms. Even with widespread clouds and developing rain showers record highs in the upper 80’s to low 90’s are possible this afternoon.

Tonight:

Strong cold front and upper level trough come to bear in a very moist and unstable air mass. The result will be widespread thunderstorms some of which will become severe. Models show very strong lift overspreading the region after 600pm this evening as cold front enters our northern counties. Expect rapid explosion of thunderstorms from near Austin to Texarkana along the leading edge of the front similar to the depiction of the 00z 4km WRF model. Instability and shear will support severe weather with the main threats being damaging winds and large hail. With the cooling of the mid levels by mid evening…severe hail will likely become the main threat overnight and SPC has outlooked the entire area for a slight risk of severe thunderstorms tonight. Squall line looks to develop along the front and push southward across the region overnight into Tuesday morning. With upper level winds slowly becoming increasingly parallel to the boundary this line will slow over the southern ½ of the region after midnight supporting an increasing threat of excessive rainfall. Front should reach the coast by 600-800am Tuesday, with showers lingering for a few hours.
Widespread rains of .5-1.5 inches are expected tonight which will greatly ease the ongoing drought and fire weather issues. Isolated amounts of 2-4 inches will be possible especially south of I-10 where the front slows. Some urban flash flooding will be possible given the potential for a quick 1-2 inches of rainfall in less than an hour under the strongest convection.

Tuesday:

Area will be dry slotted on the SW side of the upper low over N TX and expect to see clearing skies by late morning behind the cold front. Temperatures will warm into the mid 70’s under NW winds.

Tuesday night-Wednesday night:

Upper low over N TX moves SSE right across SE TX resulting in large scale isentropic lifting. Low level stratus clouds will rapidly fill in across the area early Tuesday evening with light rain developing from N to S across the region by Wednesday morning. Expect off and on light to moderate rains on Wednesday under cold air advection resulting in very cool daytime highs. In fact some locations may not get out of the 50’s on Wednesday.

Thursday-Saturday:

Upper low will exit the region to the SE late Wednesday with a secondary strong cold front arriving early Thursday. Strong 1030mb Canadian high pressure will spill done the Rockies into TX with 850mb temperatures falling into the 5-7C range. Very strong cold air advection on strong N winds will keep highs on the cool side through the entire period. In fact highs on Friday may only reach the lower to mid 60’s even under sunny skies. High pressure settles overhead Friday night resulting in near ideal radiational cooling conditions. Lows should bottom out in the mid 30’s north and west to mid 40’s along the coast with highs next Saturday recovering into the upper 60’s.
Cold air pouring over the warm NW Gulf waters Thursday will support very strong coastal water winds. Sustained winds of 25-35mph with gusts of 40-50mph will be possible over the coastal waters Thursday. A Gale Warning may be required for Thursday.

We had a little thunderstorm earlier today. Not a lot of rain, but some. We have a Special Weather Statement out saying that funnel clouds are possible. The sun is out now... haven't had time to keep up with the weather and just now saw the forecast. Wow! High chances tonight and tomorrow! I'm gonna read the stuff posted above now. I hope the rain doesn't keep voters away tomorrow.

We hit 37 the other morning!! It sure warmed up quickly though.

I am so happy to finally see some rain in the forecast. The past few weeks was probably the worst pine needle drop I have ever witnessed - those things wreak havoc on the pool equipment!

GFS/NAM MODEL RUNS. WIDESPREAD NON-SEVERE CONVECTION WAS CURRENTLY

SURFACE CONVERGENCE APPEARS TO BE INCREASING ALONG THE FRONT
AS CU HAVE RECENTLY BEEN NOTED DEVELOPING ALONG THIS SYSTEM IN NERN
TX AND CENTRAL TX NEAR A TXK TO TEMPLE LINE. THE STRENGTHENING LARGE
SCALE FORCING AND LOW LEVEL CONVERGENCE SHOULD HELP DRIVE CONVECTIVE
DEVELOPMENT BY LATE TODAY...PROBABLY AROUND OR AFTER 00Z GIVEN THE
MODERATELY UNSTABLE AIR MASS FAVORABLE...THUNDERSTORMS ARE LIKELY TO
BECOME WIDESPREAD ALONG THE SEWD MOVING FRONT OVERNIGHT. IT STILL
APPEARS THAT GIVEN THE DEGREE OF INSTABILITY AND RELATIVELY STEEP
MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES...SEVERE HAIL WILL BE THE PRIMARY THREAT.
