superjames1992 Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 Just imagine that after a snowless winter we finally get a good pattern in early March. We get a real doozy of a storm on our hands and the Euro and every other model routinely dump 10-20" across the entire region. Going into the final hour, all is still well. The Euro buries us. The SREF plumes are showing historic totals. Our snowstorm is expected to start in the wee hours of morning and last through the following night. Snow begins falling late that night and radar looks amazing. However, we wake at dawn to see that temperatures have unexpectedly warmed into the mid-30s and snowfall rates are unimpressive and spotty. A slushy inch gas accumulated on grassy surfaces, but the streets are only wet. By noon temperatures have warmed into the upper 30s and we have wind driven rain and slip showers. We lose our snowcover by 1 PM. The precipitation shuts off early at 5 PM and the sun comes out, warming temperatures into the mid 40s by sunset. Mass suicides are widespread overnight and work absenteeism is common the following day. Meanwhile, the ULL swings through S GA and Waycross gets buried under a surprise 6" of snow that afternoon.

metalicwx366 Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 I'm ready for my near 80 degree temps for tomorrow. Our forecast high failed by 11 degrees today. Then the overnight low tomorrow is a torch with near 70 for a low. 18z GFS has wintry precipitation in Texas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember back in the 80s watching TWC, I would see wintry weather in TX in the Days Inn five day forecast. It would eventually come east in subsequent maps. Now, when you see wintry weather in TX, it moves NE and never makes it here. We get showers instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

packbacker Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 JB's and other seasonal forecasts still can hit. Even if we suck wind after this 3-4 day cold spell until Jan 20th or so the following 5-6 weeks could be really cold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't care how the specific details are shown now for day 10 event, but these runs so far this afternoon and evening are a complete 180 from last nights dumpster fire and train wreck, so that's a positive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
