I think the temps the news stations are displaying are too warm and will slowly come down once Sunday rolls around. The ensembles and models don’t handle cold weather well. We would be 1-2 day out at that time.

Here is POW Ponder’s update

These models run are going to flip flop. I wouldn’t worry about that at this time. Also they do not handle cold weather pattern well. We are under a hazardous outlook for below normal temperatures all next week. Also we have a high chance of above normal precipitation in the same period. I saw one o...

Let’s remember 2021 Winter Storm and freeze and how people died because they lost power and was keeping them selves warm by sitting in a car in a closed garage, (Carbon Monoxide poisoning death) or how people were lighting up their BBQ grill in the garage which cause Carbon Monoxide deaths and fires...

Any winter precipitation that fall likely shuts the city down for at least 2 days with this type cold weather

My weather channel app for Tue/Wed of next week.

closer view of the 18z GFS snow totals I stay in the HWY 99/Klien area near Hooks Airport and that would be nearly a foot of snow which is crazy. But we have seen extreme weather patterns in Houston from Hurricane Ike, Harvey, Beryl to the 2021 Winter Storm/Extreme Cold, 2008, 2009 snow, with many ...

This was POW Ponders update from this morning.

Here is POW Ponder weather update who I trust. Please folks listen to trusted weather sources for updates. I want it snow just as bad as anyone else but remember what issue comes along with it.

Travis seems all in.. Low confidence cuz it’s still far out and the GFS isn’t really onboard. Travis was on the right side of the Beryl forecast. That Siberian air become so dense that a cross-polar jaunt is just a hop... Travis is posting this on his FB page to get us ready. Also, if the cold fron...

I am copying this link from POW Ponder. All I have to say is wow. I don’t know if this would be a repeat of 2021 but it’s so far looking like it.

This would cause serious power outages which could be devastating because of the cold air

That is serious cold. I was watch ABC13 Kevin Roth and he mentioned the arctic cold coming around MLK day and that the temps the were displaying may be too warm but they are going to be conservative until we get closer. Probably Thursday

My Weather Channel app has snow in the forecast 8 days out. This is a good sign but its still 8 days out

We would need the air that is forecasted for the week of the 20th to originate from Siberia/Arctic air and it will need to be in place. Then have the system come in behind it with the cold air still in place then we’re in business. I think we would be looking at Freezing Rain setup which is much mor...

Is that a bit more south?

Yes, but the temperatures don't support it

I’m subscribed to POW Ponder’s YouTube channel. He gives good information and is not hype

Since the late 1800s, for Houston at least. That would be an outlier. It would shut down the city for days. GFS has quite an imagination. lol Big winter storm around the 22nd. That would be unlikely. Storm for this week was showing that as well. We really need a strong Arctic air mass to be in plac...

I almost rather it be warmer in our area. Cold with no precipitation but rain is no fun. Normally it is late January or early February for Houston to see any shot of winter precipitation. 2021 was a once in a generation storm but was also deadly.

I wouldn’t give up on wintery precipitation yet. Models have us to close. We are still a few day out. It may come down to now casting. Also , we typically do get a real threat until late January early February.

Temperatures are trending colder from 2 days ago for this week which may change what the models are currently showing for SE Texas
