36 for the low this morning in Denison. Clouds held in until right after sunrise or we might have flirted with freezing.

Spring? What's that? The globals all say try 2014! My mother's vegetable garden has survived the freezes being in the urban core but the growth is noticeably putrid compared to the last two years.
Euro/CMC/GFS says another cold spell not unlike the one we just had coming through again.
I don't know what mother nature is trying to pull off but I like it!

We hit 39 this morning in Denison. Three straight mornings with lows that resemble wintertime rather than springtime.
In the middle of April!
Known otherwise as the "Spring of Wxman 57's Discontent"!!!

Expect more cold Springs ahead...http://iceagenow.info/2012/02/ice-age-2014/.
I did not want to start a new thread as this forecast was made a couple of years back, but I just read about it a couple of days ago lol. What do you guys think? Global Warming or Global Cooling? Best answer is right in the middle right?
Edit: Oops broken link

Re: Texas Winter 2012-2013
More for SE TX than the rest, but is Wintery sounding. Jeff Lindner's morning email:
Strong cold front will bring near record cold temperatures by the end of the week.
In a pattern that continues to repeat, another strong upper level storm system will cross the state on Thursday ushering in a strong cold front. Ahead of this feature a warm and muggy air mass is noted across much of eastern TX with dewpoints well into the 60’s and at some sites the lower 70’s. Warm layer of air aloft is keeping a cap on any convective chances with some slight potential especially on Wednesday of a showers or two moving inland off the western Gulf in the offshore flow. Onshore flow is also bringing in a large amount of haze/smoke from agriculture fires in Mexico. There will be little change to the pattern until Thursday when a strong cold front sweeps across the area.
Models have shown a general slowdown in the frontal timing with the boundary entering our W counties in the mid to late morning and moving off the coast toward the early evening. This paces the boundary across the region during maximum heating and during the greatest amounts of instability. As with the past front past week, the capping inversion held strong along the boundary allowing no development until the lift from the upper trough arrived during the overnight hours. Capping looks to be a problem with the upcoming front also, especially across areas south of I-10. Areas north of I-10 stand at least a decent shot of the cap being broken, and with good instability and strong shear, any storms that develop in this region will likely become severe. Hard to pin down the severe threat still over 48 hours out and will take a closer look tomorrow.
Post front air mass will be cold from mid April with lows both Friday and Saturday mornings falling into the upper 30’s and lower 40’s which is near record temperatures. Highs on Friday will only reach the mid to upper 60’s and only 70 on Saturday or roughly 10 degrees below daytime highs. The dry and cold air mass will feel much different than the current air mass in place.

Record late season cold is possible tonight in the Red River Valley.
North of the river, a freeze warning is in effect where lows in the upper 20s to lower 30s are expected in southern Oklahoma.
South of the river, Sherman/Denison's record low of 33 for April 19 is in jeopardy with a low of 34/35 forecast.
AMAZING cold spring continues!

It's late April and the northern hemisphere is still showing a lot of snow cover. Record in fact (on pace to break the April record going back to the 1960s), this is something we see in early winter not heart of spring. Pretty amazing thing going on up there in the northern latitudes and a still frozen Canada.

Here in Sherman/Denison, yesterday was a raw, blustery, chilly day worthy of a January cold front. Temps in the lower 40s, drizzle, and a stiff northerly breeze all afternoon. (Perfect bike riding weather!).
Hit 39 for the low temperature reading before midnight on 4/23/13.
Temp is 38 for the moment on 4/24/13. Probably will go a degree or two lower before the night is done.
What an amazing winter, er spring, this has been!
