18Z NAM suggests a very potent storm system crossing TX. That model suggests some possible wintry weather near Central TX now @ hour 54. Portastorm will likely faint.

How many times have we seen surprises pop up? We are still one to two days out so you never know what can happen.
CMC continues to be a lot stronger with this cold weather. I mean I understand the Canadian is known for its cold weather bias but you would think it would begin to fall into line with the other models. It is getting pretty close to the event so... Like I said how funny would it be if the Canadian ended up being right?

I would laugh, laugh and laugh at the crazy Uncle that everyone laughed at.

Please don't give up, folks. Is it frustrating? Yes! Can it be disappointing? Yes again.
You all know my feelings toward models. They are simply a tool. They should not be used for forecasting purposes, but rather trends and possibilities. They have been indicating, for some time now, that something is going to change to give many areas in the CONUS very cold weather. They continue to broadcast this possibility. There is, without a doubt, a trend there. So much so that it can not be ignored.
For those of us that like super cold. We may have to settle for just cold for a bit. For those of us that want frozen precip.. It only has to be cold enough. We will need surface freezing temps for it to stick. Saturday will be a good day to examine any potential events for next week. It will also be a good time to look at severe storm/heavy rain potential, and who might getting frozen precip. in Texas, sticking or not.

Winter Storm Watches are going up at this hour. I suggest those wondering about a second surge of colder air read the AFD's across the Central and Northern Plains.

Actually, there's not. Current temps in NW Canada are running from -4 to +10F. I see a few temps to -10 to -16F in north central Canada, but nearby obs to the coldest spots are above freezing.ronyan wrote:Lol there's plenty of cold air in NW Canada. It's just not cold enough.

Would someone mind posting a map of the current temperatures in Russia so that everyone will be able to keep track, please?

You think -4F to +10F isn't cold? His statement was "there is no cold air in nw canada" and that is obviously an exaggeration.wxman57 wrote:Actually, there's not.

No its actually little above normal in nw canada at this point. Nothing out of the ordinary. For this time of year. Some people keep.sayi.g extreme cold air will build across nw canada. Im not pointing to anyone particular heck even bastardi said this was going to be coldest ja.uary since 85. Maybe im missing something. Hey I love cold weather would love to cover my 2 acres with snow but I.have.to have 25 degree wet bulb that's not happening. So ronyan quit saying I have nothing positive to say. I don't go off models you show me some -30 &-40 temps in canada

No, I don't. Not for mid winter in the Arctic Circle. I'm looking for temps there of -20F to -40F.ronyan wrote:

By the way, I'm looking at the 18Z NAM and it keeps the frozen precip farther NE than the 12Z across NE TX. It actually shows less frozen precip across Texas:
