Step #1 is establishing a snowpack north of us. Patience.
Keep in mind that the high was 77°F on Dec 30, 2020 in College Station...and then we know what happened - two 5 inch snows in CLL in Jan, Feb 2021.

Is the front moving a little quicker? I’m feeling some cooler breezes out here tonight.

Sort of "tongue and cheek," but it was odd last night/early this morning with the cooler feeling air.
Back to normal now.

Lows go from near 70 to in the 30’s. Yeah, that’s not much of a difference at all.Brazoriatx979 wrote: ↑Sun Dec 28, 2025 12:36 pmI was thinking the same thing. Not much of a strong cold front. High of 65 Monday..high of 54 Tuesday...next

It could be a 81°F to 38°F drop here. Just had a wind shift to the west, so the FROPA may be approaching early. No surprise.
I'll report tomorrow morning.

After the 10/11th of January, pacific blocking pattern is shifting into a significantly more favorable setup for winter across Texas and areas east of the rockies mid january , teleconnections are becoming pretty favorable, its all lined up, and its supported by pretty much every model available

Cpv17 I mean to be fair, 80’s in the winter is pretty brutal even for texas standards lol, but with what looks to be a potentially exciting and eventually 2nd half of January and potentially going into february , I think a warm up ahead isnt going to be the end of all things

In January, but 80’s are still somewhat common in Texas during December.Stratton20 wrote: ↑Sun Dec 28, 2025 4:40 pm Cpv17 I mean to be fair, 80’s in the winter is pretty brutal even for texas standards lol, but with what looks to be a potentially exciting and eventually 2nd half of January and potentially going into february , I think a warm up ahead isnt going to be the end of all things
