bubba hotep Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 Considering the HRRR seems to be on something really good taking that model with a grain of salt, the 4K nam and to some extent the NAM at 18z offer some hope for Thursday and Friday by not providing a southern Texas screw over, here is to hoping they remain under a firm cap. Yea, the north trend with precipitation placement has been noticeable on the 4k NAM. I've been away from my desktop today, so no Euro data for me yet.

raindancewx Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 WT360 (Weather Trends 360) seems to buy a very hot / dry summer for the US, noting a lot of springs in AMO+, PDO+, El Nino to La Nina years have switched from relatively cool/wet in Apr-May to scorching in Summer. http://www.agweb.com/blog/better-weather-with-captain-kirk/spring-weather-does-not-predict-summer-weather-/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cooler and wetter vs. the combo above with the +AMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubba hotep Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 2% Tor for all of the DFW area. Not expecting much but it will be interesting to watch the trends today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quixotic1 Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 There go your SE low level flow leeches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NTXYankee Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 There go your SE low level flow leeches. Yep another dud looks to be in the making up here thanks to that unless it developed far enough east to not interrupt flow on backside but our environment is so fragile up this way a water balloon breaking would cause subsidence.

bubba hotep Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 There go your SE low level flow leeches.Hopefully, not all bad. Cells are moving more eastward and didn't build all the way to the coast. Surface obs seem to suggest pretty good low level flow and not seeing a lot of east winds on backside. And if SPC Meso can be trusted, environment north of I20 still looks decent. Big question is will there be additional crap or will we see some clearing later this afternoon?With that said, none of the models are overly encouraging if you want some decent rain. Looks like a win for overcast blah weather again. ETA: looks like significant back building is starting along with increasing coverage down towards I10. Basically, light rain this morning was the show for DFW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically, light rain this morning was the show for DFW I don't think it really matters at this point how much sun we get, dew point has crashed by nearly 10 degrees in metroplex thanks to moisture feed being cutoff again by south Texas junk. Unreal that this continues to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jm1220 Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 Tornado warning in Fayette County now. The outflow boundary is inching its way down here. Hopefully something pops up soon. I bet it's less sweltering in Cancun right now than here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jm1220 Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 Lol, that blob will probably sit there through tomorrow or a new one will replace it to ruin tomorrow too Today's Euro gives very generously to TX-north and south through day 10. But today looks like another one of those rags or riches rain events. A nice group of storms looks to be forming in the western Edwards Plateau by San Angelo, hopefully those can grow legs and nail the I-35 corridor. Today's just one of those days where I'm dying for some rain to take the edge off the filth that's outside. For all the rain that's nailed people 2-3 counties east of here, I haven't seen one drop yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hah, Euro showed that the last time too, it will all end up south of here, I'll be fine if I am wrong but chances are it will change. I really doubt those storms hold together, if the do they'll probably cut southeast before getting here and hit you guys our instability and dew point is in the crap tank thanks to those storms down there.

bubba hotep Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 Subsidence. Suppression. Two words. So much evil. My guess is that the clearing skies are because subsidence continues to increase as storms rage on to our SE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NTXYankee Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 My guess is that the clearing skies are because subsidence continues to increase as storms rage on to our SE. It feels like a cold front came through here, no humidity to speak of. This is extremely frustrating how long those storms have lasted and what damage they have already caused for tomorrow depending on when they finally stop.

bubba hotep Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 So how far NE will that batch of storms make it? There was some slight improvement from the 18z to 00z FWD sounding but still plenty of CIN. However, lift is spreading in from the west but will it be enough to allow storms to make it past I35? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roy Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 If I were to guess, they will die over me in North Fort Worth so DFW airport gets a sprinkle in the rain gauge. Will see. Fingers crossed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
