I really see the event next week (late next week that is) being a lot like the current ongoing event in south Texas ... except the surface temps should be 10-15 degrees colder in many spots. Isentropic lift and overrunning will get heavier as we see surface low development off the coast. Perhaps several days of precip?! Maybe.

Blast away ... but those are my thoughts at the moment.

Yep GFS shows a ice storm for us folks in southeast texas with snow further off to the north and west in central Texas of course its to far off to be speculating on precip types,but it is hard to ignore the consistency of the GFS and also how the event keeps pushing upward in time instead of backwards like we see alot with the models when they show an fantasy storm that ends up not verifying.For what its worth...

Interesting to say the least. Still a LONG time for our possible Pre-Valentines ice storm..

According to the GFS data for the next 16 days, it will get cold next Thursday.

I'm thinking more late next week than this Monday for any possibility at all.

GFS has been back and forth on this. I'm sold on the cold, but think Monday's rain will exit before the artic push makes it. However, a good argument could be made for over-running Wednesday and if the cold air is still in place as the next push of moisture arrives Thursday, then it could get interesting indeed. Stay tuned.

No wintry weather so far from the 00Z GFS but there is still a little more to go on the run so lets wait and see.

Agreed. GFS is less sure of any frozen precip at least this far south (and at least for this run)

The predicted back and forth known otherwise known as the medium-long range GFS continues. Hopefully the shift of the freezing line further west and north of our area for late next week is only a temporary blip.

I will be happy once all this cold air gets out of here and temps are back into the 90's. Bring on the heat! :lol:

Come on guys! We have heat 15 months out of the year. Now that it's February, winter is on the downswing. Let us have our last little horah here and you can have all the heat you can boil in.... :lol:

Even though the 0z is a Little warmer its not significantly, it still shows temps in the mid to low 30's with precip for what its worth.

Haha i know i know. I just hate the cold if it is not snowing. The cold is useless without precip. At least with heat plants can grow etc... The GFS has been painting at least a change of wintry precip so don't be so disappointed.
