Yesterday the CFS had a huge winter storm over Texas the first week of February.

GFS is feeding the fantasy today. Two feet of snow in CLL.

Cold is trending.

I love how that’s aimed directly at us this time around instead of sliding SE.

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.

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!
