Two more days of pleasant weather before the bottom falls out temp wise across our Region on Tuesday. The much anticipated Arctic Cold Front is diving S from Canada this morning and will arrive early Tuesday across Oklahoma/N Texas and be off the Texas Coast by Tuesday afternoon. You will need a coat on Tuesday as temps fall rapidly into the 40's and settle into the 30''s by Tuesday evening with strong and blustery N winds that will actually have a wind chill in the upper 20's to low 30's Tuesday night. Frost and Freeze warnings are likely along and N of the I-10 Corridor and may extended into Wednesday night as well.
A very progressive pattern will develop as a Coastal Low/trough takes shape next weekend bringing a rain and elevated storm chance before another reinforcing shot of cold Canadian air plunges S next Sunday into Monday (a week from tomorrow).
The long range outlook is suggesting a cross Polar flow straight from Siberia may well become established as a deep full latitude trough remains anchored across Western and Central North America with disturbance riding S in the N to NW flow and continued chances for Eastern Pacific moisture and Coastal Low/Trough development along the Texas Coast before yet another Arctic Cold Front arrives.

Update from Jeff:
Model guidance continues to be in good agreement on a strong cold front reaching the area on Tuesday.
Large cold high pressure cell has dislodged out of NW Canada and is starting is southward progress into the US this afternoon. Arctic boundary has crossed the US border and will arrive into TX early Tuesday and push off the TX coast Tuesday evening. Howling NW winds and falling temperatures can be expected with the frontal passage on Tuesday. ENE to NE surface flow will keep moisture limited ahead of this boundary so not expecting much of any rainfall. Temperatures will fall from the 60/70 on Tuesday into the upper 40’s north of I-10 by sunset.
Main forecast focus will surround low temperatures on Wednesday and Thursday mornings. Should continue to see winds in the 10-15mph range into Tuesday night and Wednesday morning and this will not be conducive to sub-freezing temps. across the region. Freeze line will at least approach our northern counties early Wednesday, but not expecting a widespread freeze on Wednesday AM. Highs on Wednesday may struggle to reach the lower to mid 50’s which is well below normal for mid-November. Better shot at more widespread freezing temperatures appears possible Thursday morning as winds go calm, but models are also hinting at high level moisture in the form of cirrus clouds possibly blanketing the area leading to temperatures remaining above freezing. Pretty much a toss up at this range as to if locations freeze Thursday AM or not, the potential is certainly there.
Cold polar high shifts eastward late Thursday and models roar moisture back into the region. Given the expectation of this front to clear the entire Gulf, models may be over-estimating current moisture return for Thursday and Friday. However, the moisture eventually comes back by Friday and into the weekend with next weekend looking wet with SW flow aloft and numerous disturbances passing across the area.
Long range models hinting at another strong polar surge around the 18/19 of the month.

What are your feelings about the possibilty of severe thunderstorms on Friday/Saturday, Jeff?" And what about ice storms around the 18/19th of the month?
Any PROS out there wanna reach way out to Thanksgiving week possibilities for Middle Tennessee? That's where I'll be....thx!

No I want to enjoy Fall and Winter - no Spring.....not until next year! Bring on the cold and snow for us winter lovers. Summer was too hot and too long this past year.
I am looking foward to the artic blast and upcoming model runs support another artic blast in 7-10 days
that makes me happy happy happy!!!!

Update from Jeff:
Freeze Watch issued along and north of a line from Brenham to Conroe to Liberty for Wednesday morning.
Modified arctic boundary plowing through TX this morning. Front will reach our northern counties in the next 1-2 hours and push off the coast by early to mid afternoon. Strong N winds will develop behind the front with gust to 35-40mph especially west of I-45 and along the coast. Fairly significant marine impacts are expected (see below). Temperatures will tumble with the frontal passage with temperatures ahead of the front in the 60’s and falling into the 50’s behind the boundary and then falling into the 40’s by sunset.
Freeze Watch:
Winds will remain gusty overnight, but strong cold air advection may result in an advective freeze into the northern ¼ of the region. Still not overly confident that freezing temperatures will occur, but do expect a few locations within the watch area to fall the freezing. Given this is the first freeze threat of the winter season, sensitive vegetation will need some protection. Could see colder conditions on Thursday morning, but potential for clouds to spill into the area and block cooling is there.
Marine Impacts:
Powerful high pressure cell will push into TX today resulting in strong offshore flow. Gale watch is in effect for the Gulf waters with winds expected to rapidly increase this afternoon into the 35-45mph range as the cold air hits the warm water. Small craft should be aware of the potential for rapidly increasing winds and seas this afternoon. Strong N winds will also drive water levels out of the inland bays and expect tides to run 1-2 feet below normal which could promote vessel groundings.
Outlook:
Polar high quickly shifts eastward by Thursday afternoon and models remain consistent in bringing moisture quickly back into the area by Thursday night. Upper flow becomes increasingly SW aloft with a series of upper level disturbances moving across the state from Friday-weekend. Will see rain chances through this entire period with, but it will be as these disturbances move across when the greatest chances will occur.

The long awaited Arctic cold front is nearing SE Texas at this hour. You'll notice the very strong gusty N/NW winds to near 40 mph as the front passes and temps quickly fall into the 50's. Also a stratus deck of clouds will make it 'feel' even colder.
![Image](http://weather.rap.ucar.edu/surface/2013111215_metars_abi.gif)
There are growing indications that a stronger Arctic Front will arrive around the 18th/19th bringing much colder temps to our Region as this air mass looks to head more S than E. Also it is noteworthy that this front may bring moisture with it as a noisy sub tropical jet becomes involved and embedded upper disturbances ride the trough S and impulses move from the SW/W to E across Texas. We may see our first significant Winter Storm with that next Arctic front with wintery mischief in the cold sector and strong to severe storms in the warm sector as that front approaches. A lot can change, and that is a low confidence forecast for this far out, but it is worth monitoring for the cold weather lovers out there. The 'wide view' water vapor imagery clearly does show the full latitude trough advancing E across the Pacific with a strong 500mb upper low at the base of that trough.

The very Long Range GFS is suggesting another very strong Arctic cold front arriving just before Thanksgiving. Stay Tuned as things will likely change and we will update things as we get closer.

Those are temps at the 850mb level or about 5000 ft up. At this range we tend to take what the models and suggested temps with a grain of salt and look at the synoptic pattern. For example the 500mb pattern suggests a deep trough pulling cold air from our source Regions of Eastern Alaska/Western Canada. What we do not know is just how much snow cover will be on the ground across Canada into the Rockies and the Plains and how much air mass modification we will see.

The front is just now passing through NW Harris County and you folks in town will notice the winds picking up and temps falling in the next couple of hours.

I get it every Wednesday at work! lol. Front looks to be moving just north of us. Entering Lumberton now. I'd say within the next hour, we will probably start noticing a BIG diff in Beaumont and Bridge City prob about 30min after us. Give or take ofcourse!
