February 2017- Spring Like Weather Returns
Time to start a February weather thread will winter hang aroung or spring start early?
Looks pretty seasonable on GFS, GEM, ensembles with a potential Gulf low late next week...

I wouldn't be surprised to see one more arctic front in February seeing there was one in December and one a few weeks ago, but that maybe is it. The pattern has been a lot more days warm compared to cold days. I don't mind days like this with sun and nice weather!

Seeing indications of a significant pattern change as February begins. Several Hemispheric features suggest the jet stream buckles and potentially sends a February chill heading S along and East of the Rockies. Time will tell.

The overnight guidance suggests a stalling frontal boundary draped across Central Texas on Thursday will bring increasing clouds and the potential for some light rain Thursday afternoon into the early part of Super Bowl Weekend. It appears a shortwave with a attending Pacific frontal boundary may push across the area Super Bowl Sunday with a chance of showers and possibly a few thunderstorms, but the best chance for heavier rainfall appears to be NE of Metro Houston with local rainfall amounts of a quarter to a half inch possible for our Super Bowl festivities.

I see nothing to indicate a major pattern reversal in February. We'll end January about 7 degrees above-normal. Superbowl weekend is looking mild and generally dry. Lows in the lower 60s, highs in the mid 70s. Doesn't get much better than that in early February.
I would not write winter off yet........ It can get cold into March.jasons wrote:Winter Cancel.

Another mostly sunny and warm day ahead across SE TX with onshore winds beginning leading to increasing moisture. Patches of fog possible tonight and Wednesday morning; as well as, Wednesday night. Increasing clouds Wednesday followed by a 20-30% chance of showers Thursday into the weekend.
