Re: Texas Fall-2016
Let's not forget the sage advice we all received years ago from one wxman57 ... this far out we need to pay closer attention to the projected 500mb flow and not the surface depictions from the model operational runs. Seeing some differences here in what the 0z GFS and Euro show at 240h:

Just maybe I will get to see some snow around Christmas time up there in NTX.

Re: Texas Fall-2016
Pretty good chances from all guidance an arctic blast is coming next week. We didn't have any last winter. I think this will be the case where source region will come into play if we are to beat the guidance with faster/colder than modeled. Cyclogenesis will determine precip, which I don't expect the models to grasp until guidance sees where the cold air actually is. There will be HP to the north.

Re: Texas Fall-2016
Will this blast have staying power or will we warm up after a day or two?

Re: Texas Fall-2016
The 12Z ECMWF trended significantly slower and further South with the weekend cold core upper low more in line with the GFS solutions into Mexcio. The Euro also suggests a Coastal trough/low organizes Saturday evening and moves up the Texas Coast slowly into Monday prolonging the raw and wet weather across the Lone Star State.

Re: Texas Fall-2016
The GFS, ECMWF, and CMC now all show some kind of big arctic outbreak for the Western/Central US including Texas in a week's time. Seems there is growing consensus on this event. Will be interesting to see just how cold it gets and where the cold ends up.

Re: Texas Fall-2016
Looks like a hard freeze on the 9th with a 1040ish mb high over head and solid snow pack from Mongolia to I-40.

I hate to be a party pooper but I did just look at the projected temps per the 12z Euro op. I would say a freeze is likely for North Texas but not a hard freeze. The only place it shows temps below 25 is in the Panhandle. Of course this is 240 hours out ... plenty will change between now and then.

With -20s in southern Canada and -10s in the northern plains I will take the under with sprawling high pressure.
It is a good way to start winter, with some real cold air to work with. It is only early Dec after all and getting a high in the 30s and a freeze is a win. Many of us are more than sick of warmth! W Canada remains cold even after the outbreak so I like our odds of more shots when/if the pattern favors.

12Z GFS shows a 1035mb high overhead and dewpoints near 0 next Friday morning. Still many more model runs to watch before we know anything with certainty.

Re: Texas Fall-2016
I find it hard to believe the temps of the Euro with that type of setup.
The MSLP levels on the GFS seem a bit more realistic.
