You too(:
Anything reaching the ground at your place?



BTW, just FYI, in addition to winter weather, this Storm2k.org board is also a great place during springtime severe weather season and especially during the hurricane season.

Where's Mississippi State Guy (I think that was his handle)?!?

He nailed the 2009 Christmas Eve storm from several days out and was pretty good on a couple of the others too.


I haven't seen him post at all this winter. I wonder where he went...Also I see a transitioning zone in southern Oklahoma.

He was only one crazy enough to predict 10 inches for us in our record snowstorm last year.


LOL, yes he was...wonder what he would be predicting on this one? :D

Probably 15+ with a nose of it going up to Wichita Falls lol. Awesome guy. His one constant was that every prediction the Falls was in the heaviest zone.

Amazing how the radar is lighting up to the southwest of the Metroplex. Almost deja vu from the Feb. storm last year...

Whats all your reasons that you think this? Is it just that bad GFS run, or did you have other thoughts in particular?

I'm not doubting you I'm just interested in hearing your thoughts :)

I don't want a cold rain..

Funny thing was that during the Christmas Eve 2009 storm, the Falls was in the heaviest zone.

I also remember he had a few battles with some other guys over that storm...and he nailed it almost to the dotting of the "I" and crossing of the "T".

Even called for it being a full scale blizzard from several days out when no one else was. I remember shaking my head and laughing when the NWS put up Blizzard Warnings for NW Texas, parts of the Red River Valley, and much of Oklahoma during that storm. It was almost like he was the "Wizard" behind the big curtain controlling the screen.

Think he was studying meterology at Mississippi State if I remember correctly.

Well the GFS didn't help, but a lot of the reasoning behind is just overall odds of something coming together perfectly again where we get pounded. Plus I'm not totally sure on this but I believe our temps starting out are warmer than last year.

If it's not, somebody may get clobbered again with some real heavy snow.

Yeah, I have no doubts he nailed that one. I was just mentioning some of the funny quirks. We could sure use his optimism for some boost right now! I think we should calm down about this snow/rain thing. We've been waiting so long angst is driving us mad lol. The snow is supposed to come from the trowel which hasn't formed yet. The precip shield won't do the trick, you need backlash comma to provide enough vertical lift under it.

So do you think if this does hopefully, continue to possibly, perhaps :) be a snowfall event, is there anyone willing to say its hypothetically possible that this could duplicate some of these previous bad snow storm events with some areas getting 8 - 12 inches of snow across north central Texas..?

Thoughts? or am I wacky?

It's certainly possible I would say. Just not likely, but really what is likely right now?

I am more nervous that we won't get anything because the local guys are on board. lol. Last year none of them were going with big totals like they are with this storm. :double:

Either way though, this has been fun as always!
