Re: January: Winter Storm Warning/Light Sleet/Snow/Freezing

For those interested, Electric Generation in the area doesn't appear to be an issue yet. Wholesale electric prices per/MW hr have inched up over the past hour, but there is still a lot of generation available in ERCOT.

Things could change quickly as demand increases - but for now, all looks good.

Re: February Weather. Snow/Sleet/Ice/Winter Storm Warning

If the 12Z GFS is correct, we'll see another Arctic air mass heading in overnight Tuesday into Wednesday... Concerning next weeks weather - it looks as though everyone is shifting gears and the discussion is picking up. I know it's been customary in the past to keep posting events for the month on ...

Re: February Weather. Snow/Sleet/Ice/Winter Storm Warning

Good Morning. Well, we didn’t get snow, we got something worse. Ice. I spent the last half hour reading some of the over night posts and I know some are disappointed, but we have to remember there are no guarantees in weather. As David Paul said this morning, “Mother Nature is going do what Mother ...

Re: February Weather. Snow/Sleet/Ice/Winter Storm Warning

As I mentioned earlier. I thought it might happen. Our snowband is falling apart on its southern end. Don't expect anything here folks. We've had our event now, this go round.

Re: February Weather. Snow/Sleet/Ice/Winter Storm Warning

TWC just said that the precip over SETX is starting to move away from the coast and out of the area.....is that it? Is our little winter wonderland over with? I know everyone keeps saying tonight, but how can it if the precip is moving away? While what TWC said may be true, I don't think the "...
