Gulf lows almost always trend north and bring in more warm air than is modeled on NE side.

Again, you get hung up on that. That’s not going to come to fruition with this. Models don’t handle these well. Old school spider senses aren’t detecting that at all.

Wow. Looks like every GFS ensemble member is on board with a pretty amped solution.

Re: Texas Winter 2024-2025
I had your confidence last week and 1 degree turned Tyler from a potential heavy snow to barely even any sleet. Column was 32/33 all the way up. Front sauce of coastal lows are a precarious place to be. Better Arctic air this time but still a risky play.ThunderSleetDreams wrote:Stratton23 wrote:ThunderSleetDreams for snow for se texas it is, stronger warm nose is the trend, thats not good

Re: Texas Winter 2024-2025
Learned a hard lesson last week. All the way up here and still not a flake until flurries the day after. That back side always comes in quick and often before the column fully cools to snow.jasons2k wrote:Ralph's Weather wrote:Gulf lows almost always trend north and bring in more warm air than is modeled on NE side.

Ralph knows.
I've been preparing for an ice storm since Sunday. We have pine trees and live oaks everywhere. The snow on top will be a bonus.

Re: Texas Winter 2024-2025
I also would not be surprised to see a mixture of freezing rain, sleet, and snow falling at my location literally at the same time during the changeover. I've seen it a few times in my lifetime and this setup looks like one of them.

That is what we have been preparing for this week. Ice storm but hoping it will only be snow.

Re: Texas Winter 2024-2025
Euro is an absolute mess for se texas, combination of 4-6 inches of snow on top of an inch of sleet and .10 to .25 of ice, definitely not getting close to freezing on tuesday and likely would struggle to reach freezing on wednesday, travel would be impossible

Shoot bud that’s just what ya want! Throw down a little ice and then 4 to 6 on top and then a couple cold days to lock it in place! Now that’s a snow day that lingers for a while.

Re: Texas Winter 2024-2025
Latest WPC total QPF. Notice the trends from previous run further north/west. Not a good sign when most of this will be frozen of some kind.

Difference in early morning temps Wednesday on the models is impressive.
