Must be a false alarm. I can't imagine that we would have it down here if you all up north did not.

I can't make it out for sure but it appears that there might be some small flakes (more like particle size) blowing in the wind in metro Houston near the Galleria. Anyone else see this?

Congratulations to the folks further north toward the Dallas area. It looks like you are in store for some nice accumulations later today/tonight. They should be getting what was forecast for the Dec. 4 event in Houston: 3-5 inches widespread with some areas receiving more. The difference mainly be...

The 12z shows the freezing line clearing the Houston area for hours 114-168. Unfortunately, I don't see that there is precip indicated anywhere nearby, at least in this model and in this run. Anyone seeing indications from other models/sources that they could be off regarding chances for precip dur...

Thank you for the feedback srain and don. I read on another forum that some of the GFS ensembles appear to be in agreement with the Canadian run. At this point, I will keep my expectations quite low for anything interesting this week. Of course, I am always happy to see expectations surpassed.

Thank you for posting the Canadian model for Friday, srain. Would you mind giving a brief summary of the forecast for the city of Houston based on this model, were it to verify?

Ch. 13 currently has Houston at 34 overnight on Wednesday. With the recent temperature busts, hopefully the models are still undercutting the system's impact. For example, is the GFS really factoring in the existing and forecasted snow cover to our north--shouldn't there still be enough to impact mo...

Correct me if I am wrong, but according to the latest GFS run, it looks like the ice/rain line appears to be stubbornly hovering just north of metro Houston late next week, with the snow line even further north. The good news is that we are still a ways out, and while those lines could move further ...

Wow, that's quite a dramatic change! How would you explain smething that drastic?? The models still have no clue? My coworker was pointing out that the 12Z GFS appears to not be handling the western U.S. trof correctly late next week. It's way different from the latest Euro now. I'd tend to disrega...

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.
