Re: 2024 Hurricane Season Discussion

One thing to take away from this, notice over the last 30 years, we are experiencing the warmest SST anomalies since '97/98 and '15. Takeaway? Those were El Niño years. SST.gif The summer of 1997 was a below average hurricane season, with only 8 named storms, 3 of which became hurricanes, one of tho...

Re: February 2024

On average, Houston's last freeze is between Feb 15-20. Unlikely IAH will record a freeze tonight, but it will likely be the closest they'll get, dare I say until November or December? I don't mind the cold, but once there's a prolong period of warmth, I get the Spring itch and ready to move on. Loo...

Re: January 2022

All I'm seeing out of the models is a volatile Pacific west-to-east flow with a few disturbances riding along the Pacific jet giving us some opportunities for some rain over the next 2+ weeks. Definitely don't see the warmth this month like we saw in December, but with below normal snow pack across ...

Re: December 2021

As for Christmas forecast.. GFS (06z) says 80s (mid to upper 80s near and west of Dallas). Euro has been trending cooler in the latest runs with mid 60s. Pretty large disagreement on the upper-level pattern come next weekend between the two. One thing they agree on is a dry forecast which would be ...

Re: December 2021

Yep,I also notice the mesoscale models are showing an impulse moving in ahead of the front tomorrow.Producing possibly some semi discreet cells before a storm complex or weak MCS moves in with the front.Any discreet cells that do develop ahead of the front tomorrow could have a tornado risk. Yeah, ...

Re: December 2021

Don't let tomorrow's weather catch you off guard with the main focus being some potentially hefty rainfall totals across our region. Looking over some soundings and model data this morning, wouldn't rule out some locations picking up 2-3+ inches with PWs in the 1.6-1.8" range which is nearing ...

Re: December 2021

If I didn't know better, 20 pages into a thread in which the month hasn't even started yet, I'd think there would be an incoming blizzard later this week. We all need to remember, models are just one tool in a very large toolbox. This forum wouldn't be where it is today without the many great dialog...

Re: October 2021

Belmer so in other words, our weather here is going to suck for the next 2-3 weeks I'll go with uneventful as I'm not too bothered by it as I do enjoy the the overall pleasant weather we've had of late. However, it would be nice to pick up some measurable rain with these fronts that swing through. ...

Re: October 2021

Very La Niña like right now. Few troughs pass through over the next 10-14 days, but nothing abnormal on the horizon. Rain will also hard to come by with any of the aforementioned troughs. Was hoping TD17-E (soon to be Rick) would deliver, but looking like much of the remnant moisture will move towar...
