Re: February 1-5, 2011 Arctic Blast/Winter Storm Discussion

My daughter in Copperfield was having some more Freezing Rain a little while ago. Has anyone in that area seen anything? Here in Spring Branch we have almost 1/4" glaze on everything. Driveway is a little iced but surface street is ok. Not going out to check though. Son had to work but they fin...

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

The precip would probably have to intensify a bit in order for that to happpen. Ah, but for those of us who have had solid precip (again, in whatever the heck form it's been in) since 10 or 11, we've got a nice coating already. Understandably those that have stayed relatively "dry" would ...

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

Just was emailing Ticka and thought of this...for those of you with icing (I guess most of us) go stand outside and listen to your trees. I'm surrounded by pine trees and they are really starting to creak. I've still got "something" falling from the sky but not sure how to categorize it. ...

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

Not going to be easy in these cash-strapped times, but HGX needs a major push for forecast sounding equipment. They sure do. It is unbelievable to me that they don't do soundings here. EVERYTHING is beginning to glaze over in the Spring Branch area. Streets are even beginning to look glazed. Not li...

Should be. Probably will wake up to falling snow.

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

Steady light freezing drizzle/flurries here at the house. Not enough to take pics of yet though. 29f now so the temp is dropping.

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

Currently 30.4 with VERY VERY light intermittent flurries here at the house. As I told Jeff in my text I was reluctant to report it, but I confirmed the moisture on my windshield. If nothing else the lower levels are definitely starting to moisten. I still expect the snow, but maybe not as much as w...

Re: February Weather. Arctic Blast/Snow/Then More Arctic Co

26.8f here and steadily dropping. I am glad it is still windy because if it wasn't we would have almost perfect radiational cooling and who knows how cold it would get? Mid to upper teens even in my location will not be a surprise to me. Still trying to contain my "excitement" re Thurs. an...
