On the positive side... despite all this talk of a blowtorch in the rest of the country, the warmest the GFS gets for highs at DFW is only a couple days in the mid 60s. Hardly unusual for December...
Happy winter everyone! Hopefully there is lots of snow for everyone.
FWIW, Larry Cosgrove believes December will be mild to "torchy" for most of the CONUS. In fact a number of folks who do longer range forecasting I read seem to be saying that. LC, however, believes the bottom drops out by the second week of January and then winter really hits hard.
