I think as more models come in, the conversation will take a more concerned tone. Stay tuned.

Why does Corpus have their coastal counties under a winter advisory but hou/gav doesn't? Doesn't make sense to me

The cold shallow air is going to have a hard time progressing to the east. The 12Z GFS showed a low on Saturday Morning of 28 in Corpus and 35 at Bush & Hobby. Seems a little on the warm side around here to me though.

It doesn’t matter. Your area will probably be added later tonight or tomorrow morning.

I cannot speak for Jason, but I do not think he intimated that. I think he was puzzled by the temperature span. I suppose it could happen...

Folks, don't get your hopes up. The models have been flopping around, and they will continue until event time. We seasoned veterans have been around this forum, myself 20 years, to know better. Most weather forecasting these days has come down to nowcasting. I've seen things change on a dime the night before, and even the day of. All we can do is prepare for the possibility, but understand how this works. If you start reading a popular word around here, bust, or comments like maybe next week because the models, well you get the picture. It is an endless cycle year after year, season after season.

As much as I agree with you Bigger, I will say the models have been trending in the direction of some P-Type. I think being aware, knowing what to do (if it happens) and how to prepare would be the watchwords.

Biggerbyyte the models have not been flopping around, the past 2 days the models have been extremely consistent on this....

Guys and gals, this has happened many times before. Just be ready for anything. Even the greats, one example, Harold Taft, was subject to error even within a few hours. I lived in Dallas in the early 80s. He swore all of the winter precip. would be confined to far north Texas and Oklahoma. Got up the next day and had icicles longer than my arm, and several inches of snow. It happens in spite of everything.

18z GFS a little colder and has upped its freezing rain totals some, this is very unlikely to be a bust lol
