Re: Texas Spring 2020
43 degrees this morning at my house. Unusual for mid-April, but I love it! Up to 60 at noon. Feels like Colorado!

Re: Texas Spring 2020
Keeping an eye on Saturday in the north texas area. There is substantial disagreement between the GFS (sweeps a cold front through on Friday with little precip) and the Euro (stalls the front near the red river and lifts it north on saturday), but if the Euro is correct, Saturday afternoon will be rough for the area. Steep lapse rates strong shear, and sufficient instability would be in play. FWD highlights this risk in their AFD as well. It looks like the Euro is the outlier at this time.

Re: Texas Spring 2020
This has been spectacular weather since the storms Sunday. Sure helps with storm cleanup. Cool to see snow nearby in NW TX and in OK.

I agree. This weather has been fantastic for mid-April. I hope that my area starts to see rain soon though. The storm system on Sunday just sprinkled on me. April has been better for rain than March though. I have had already more than twice as much rain this month.

Looks like the Euro held pretty steady today at 12z.

Definitely not your typical April

There was snow in Oklahoma on the anniversary of a tornado outbreak in 2012

Re: Texas Spring 2020
Good amount of frost this morning in Denison. Made it down to 35 degrees at North Texas Regional Airport and down to 32 at the Austin College Weather Station.
Wow, what a crazy few months of weather here in North Texas.
We had a big frost on the morning of Oct. 12 (Texas/OU Game Day) and the big frost this morning on April 15 (normal Tax Day).
And very little winter in the six months in between.

Re: Texas Spring 2020
The next couple of weeks look to be active over the eastern U.S, though some of the heaviest rains may stay east of Texas if the NAO trend negative, but CPC is already highlighting a potential severe weather threat next week on the 22nd-23rd for Texas and Louisiana.
