Re: Texas Winter 2012-2013
I just figured it out ... I was off by a season! We should have called Spring 2013, not Winter 2012-13, the "Winter of Wxman57's Discontent" given how unusually cold it has been!

DFW could very well brush close to the freezing mark if the winds can die down. The north and nw counties seem doable, wouldn't be surprised if some traditional cold areas of SE and central Texas brush below 40. Stunning what the past 2-3 months have become, record lows are hard to come by in recent springs, not this year.

Fort Worth NWS is forecasting 34 for a low on Thursday night with a 20% chance of precip.
Don't see that forecast very often in December, let alone in early May.
The Spring of Wxman 57's Discontent continues.

Re: Texas Winter 2012-2013
This front is something else..
Most of the Local NWS sites dropped temps another 1-2 degrees today...
I'd think Conroe, Southern Rough and a few others will flirt with 33-34 degrees..
My farm is one of those cold spots in SE Texas under calm winds and I never thought I'd be worried about frost in May 65 miles from the Gulf of Mexico.... Heck it's rare for frost in April..

I'm not sure I want to know. Either way it might go I don't find appealing.
