Rgem mesoscale shifted south also

I've also been following the ULL since it moved onto the west coast and going back and comparing to the model suites. It seems to continue digging a bit further south than what models keep showing and they are playing catch up. NAM/GFS and now HRRR continue to correct itself with higher totals expanding southward and now showing minor accumulation from Columbus to Tomball, Spring and Kingwood.
Models have served its purpose well this week tracking the set up, but now it's 'nowcasting' time for the most part. If you're up in College Station to Madisonville up towards Lufkin, if it works out just right, you all could see 4-6+ inches.

Stratus clouds arrive early in San Antonio this afternoon. She's wound up and ready to dig deep.
Blake I’m right up the street from KHOU. Are you suggesting thunder snow is possible in our neck of the woods?KHOU BLake wrote: ↑Sat Jan 09, 2021 10:45 pm With dynamics like we have, not only could we see thunder snow tomorrow but snow ratios may be 12:1 or 13:1. If latest models are right, this will be historic. It's important not to let our imaginations run wild. Rarely will the model be correct. I've always been taught to always take the 'under' on snowfall totals than the over.
What are they complaining about they’ve have plenty of winter storms. SMH.Kingwood36 wrote: ↑Sat Jan 09, 2021 10:32 pm Dallas peeps on 2k are going crazy thinking they just got screwed again lol
The snow will be in the northwest counties. I'm not totally ruling out snow in Harris County but accumulations looks minimal if any. Of course these systems always have surprises. I've lived here too long and seen too many surprises for it not to be true this time.txsnowmaker wrote: ↑Sat Jan 09, 2021 10:49 pmBlake I’m right up the street from KHOU.

When you mention the possibility of heavy wet snow for “Houston,” are you referring to the city itself or other areas outside city limits like Cypress, Tomball, etc?Belmer wrote: ↑Sat Jan 09, 2021 10:16 pm 00z GFS is intriguing.
