Really like the ensembles look for February and the weeklies keep February pretty dang chilly.
Could be an active first 15 days of February for us. All types of precip on the table.

Yeah, I saw that.
I'm hoping that doesn't affect me getting back to Houston next week. Until then, I'll be barreling down the backside of Peaks 6-10 in Breck this weekend, then going cross-country skiing on the divide.
I'll hopefully bring that weather back with me.

the GFS continues to see no arctic air, doesn’t make much sense to me given all the support lol, i know its typical for this to happen in models, but it just keeps all the cold air locked up north
It apparently isn’t doing too well with shallow cold airmasses.Stratton20 wrote: ↑Thu Jan 26, 2023 9:21 am the GFS continues to see no arctic air, doesn’t make much sense to me given all the support lol, i know its typical for this to happen in models, but it just keeps all the cold air locked up north

Holy smokes the CMC has an incredibly nasty ice storm, those totals are eye popping

So far the freezing air stays in central and north Texas on those models. The gfs doesn't have a freeze close at all. Looks like freezing rain and sleet if it were to be cold enough in future runs anyways and that is no fun!
Freezing rain -> sleet--> snow *possible* up in CLL. We'll see.

Freezing rain is going to be a major problem. It can cause power outages and streets freeze over making traveling dangerous.

12z Canadian ensembles is ballistic, 20-21 members have a devastating ice storm across the state, and some even bring it all the way down to Se Texas
I have seen some models in pow ponder daily YouTube video showing an ice storm all the way down towards Houston area. We shall see

Cpv17 yup! the setup for an ice storm is their in houston, temps just need to trend colder
The GFS and Euro operationals are WAYYYY too warm. Even their own ensembles are significantly colder. Could easily be 10-15 degrees colder than what the GFS/Euro operationals currently have.
