Ed Lizard Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Thunderstorm and 49ºF in ABI. DPs already in the low 60s in HOU, I'm hoping for some early morning excitement. Snow would be exciting, but 3 seasons in a row of snow in HOU has never happened before. But frozen dimes pinging my car, that would be cool.

Flexo Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Op GFS has been faster with the trough than all the ensemble members for at least 3 runs. The ensemble, the Euro and the GGEM are in a lot better agreement. The slower progression of the trough translates into a wetter pattern to it's east (C001 is the OP). But some of those are way too warm for snow here. Ugh I'll take the OP run Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bubba hotep Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 00Z NAM looks good for the DFW area but there have been a number of issues noted for the NAM with this system. It will be interesting to see what the GFS comes in with. Also, the surface freezing line has barreled through Vernon and is knocking on the door of Wichita Falls.

ACTIVITY ALSO MAY BACKBUILD SWWD SOMEWHAT ACROSS NW TX INTO AREAS E OF LBB AND S OF CDS. ALSO...CONVERSION FROM RAIN TO FREEZING RAIN AND SLEET WILL OCCUR WITHIN PORTIONS PRECIP PLUME INITIALLY SE OF FREEZING LINE. EMBEDDED TSTMS MAY PRODUCE LIQUID EQUIVALENT RATES BRIEFLY REACHING 0.5-0.75 INCH/HOUR RANGE...BUT WITH .10-.25 INCH/HOUR RATES MORE COMMON. DEEP SHORTWAVE TROUGH -- ANALYZED ON 00Z UPPER-AIR CHARTS OVER CENTRAL/NRN NM...IS EXPECTED TO MOVE EWD TO W TX BY ABOUT 09Z...PRECEDED BY EXTENSIVE AREA OF MIDLEVEL DCVA AND LOW-LEVEL WAA ABOVE COLD BOUNDARY LAYER. SFC ANALYSIS SHOWS COLD FRONT CONTINUING TO MOVE SWWD ACROSS NRN HILL COUNTRY OF CENTRAL TX...AS WELL AS CONCHO VALLEY AND PERMIAN BASIN. FREEZING AND WET-BULB 0 LINES LIKEWISE WILL MOVE SWD BENEATH PROGRESSIVELY MORE OF PRECIP PLUMES NOW SPREADING NEWD FROM NW TX AND FROM ABI AREA.

DFWWeather Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 000 FXUS64 KFWD 010349 AAB AFDFWD AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE FORT WORTH TX 949 PM CST MON JAN 31 2011 .UPDATE... WATER VAPOR AND IR SATELLITE IMAGERY ARE QUITE IMPRESSIVE THIS EVENING WITH A POWERFUL UPPER LEVEL STORM SWINGING EASTWARD OUT OF NEW MEXICO. UPWARD FORCING FROM THIS SYSTEM IS EVIDENT BY RAPIDLY COOLING CLOUD TOPS ACROSS MUCH OF WESTERN AND NORTH TEXAS AND RADAR IMAGERY SHOWING AN INCREASE IN ACTIVITY OVER THE LAST HOUR. COLD FRONT IS DRAPED ACROSS THE CWA WITH TEMPS IN THE 40S NORTH OF A COMANCHE TO PARIS LINE...AND 50S AND 60S FARTHER SOUTH...HOWEVER THE MUCH COLDER ARCTIC AIR IS STILL A LITTLE FARTHER NORTH BUT IS MAKING SOUTHWARD PROGRESS. TEMPS OVER THE LAST HOUR HAVE FALLEN INTO THE 30S ACROSS THE NORTHWEST COUNTIES. THIS COLD AIR WILL AFFECT WESTERN COUNTIES FIRST...THEN SPREAD EASTWARD THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT HOURS. SURFACE LOW IS CURRENTLY LOCATED ACROSS THE BIG BEND REGION AND WILL BEGIN TO RAPIDLY MOVE NORTHEAST OVER THE NEXT FEW HOURS. MEANWHILE...WIDESPREAD SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS HAVE DEVELOPED IN RESPONSE TO INCREASING LARGE SCALE ASCENT SPREADING EAST AHEAD OF THE UPPER LOW. EXPECT THIS ACTIVITY TO CONTINUE TO INCREASE IN COVERAGE THROUGH MIDNIGHT. LIGHTNING HAS BEEN ON THE INCREASE AND THERE WILL BE SUFFICIENT ELEVATED INSTABILITY TO SUPPORT AN ISOLATED SEVERE HAIL THREAT FOR THE NEXT SEVERAL HOURS. AS THE SURFACE LOW DEEPENS AND MOVES NORTHEAST...MUCH COLDER AIR WILL CONTINUE TO POUR SOUTHWARD ACROSS NORTH TEXAS. THERE APPEARS TO BE A PERIOD OF TWO OR THREE HOURS WHERE SOME MODERATE FREEZING RAIN COULD OCCUR...MAINLY ACROSS THE NORTHWEST COUNTIES FROM NEAR GRAHAM TO BOWIE. LATEST FORECAST SOUNDINGS FROM BOTH THE 00Z NAM AND 02Z RUC INDICATE THAT THE 1000-850MB LAYER WILL COOL QUICKLY TO BELOW FREEZING SOMETIME AFTER MIDNIGHT...HOWEVER A STOUT WARM NOSE WILL PERSIST AROUND 800MB INTO THE EARLY MORNING HOURS TUESDAY. THE LATEST RUC ALSO INDICATES AS MUCH AS 350J/KG OF ELEVATED INSTABILITY ATOP THE COLD AIR. THIS PROFILE SUGGESTS THAT SOME IMPRESSIVE CONVECTIVE SLEET SHOWERS WILL BE POSSIBLE LATER TONIGHT INTO THE EARLY MORNING HOURS. CANT RULE OUT THUNDER SLEET FOR SEVERAL HOURS AS WELL. THERMAL PROFILES ARE MORE FAVORABLE FOR SNOW MAINLY ACROSS THE NORTHWEST COUNTIES. THIS IS ALSO WHERE THE LATEST NAM CONTINUES TO INDICATE STRONGEST FRONTOGENTIC ZONE AND POTENTIAL FOR BANDED PRECIP TO SET UP. GIVEN THE LATEST DATA...WILL LEAVE THE WARNINGS IN EFFECT AS IS...BUT CHANGE THE PREDOMINANT PRECIPITATION TYPE TO SLEET AND ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS FOR MUCH OF THE AREA. WILL HAVE THE PURE SNOW CONFINED TO THE NORTHWEST COUNTIES AND RED RIVER COUNTIES THROUGH MORNING. LATER IN THE DAY ON TUESDAY...WE COULD SEE ALL SNOW OVER MUCH OF NORTH TEXAS...BUT PRECIP SHOULD BE WINDING DOWN. IN ADDITION...WILL BUMP UP ACCUMULATIONS IN THE METROPLEX TO 2 TO 3 INCHES...MAINLY SLEET ACCUMULATION. OTHERWISE...ALL OTHER ELEMENTS ARE IN GOOD SHAPE. WILL CONTINUE TO MONITOR THE EVOLUTION OF THIS SYSTEM AND MAKE NECESSARY ADJUSTMENTS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Witness Protection Program Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Drop from 45 to 36 here in Ft. Worth between 22:55 and 23:55. (Hope it keeps zooming down so we don't get enough icing to kill the power lines.) More amazing is the fact I actually got the DFW NWS page to load after only 3 refreshes just now. That website has had major problems for months, but is nearly useless today. Houston NWS rarely has the same problem, anyone know what's the deal with the DFW office?

David Reimer Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Needless to say, the freeze line has zoomed southeast this evening, well ahead of model projections. That's not too much of a surprise considering how shallow it is at first, but even I'm surprised how its almost six hours early. I was hoping to get a two hour nap in before driving up to Gainesville from Dallas (I'm on duty for a few media stations) but it looks like I'm gonna have to forgo that and get up there before everything ices over.
