Re: December 2020

Looking like a pattern change is coming as November ends and December begins. PNA Ridge pops up to our NW and Southern stream storms may bring damp and chilly weather to the Lone Star State. Stay tuned... Seeing the same. The days after Thanksgiving leading up to the 7th show front after front and ...

Re: November 2020

Let's see if we can get a flawless, hot November with little/no rain. After that, let's see if such beautiful weather continues through winter!

Re: November 2020

It's true that previous La Nina's have brought wintry events. But by and large, they literally have to thread the needle - upper level support largely is north away from SE Texas during such winters. Even the subtropical jet would barely have an effect. So it's going to be pure wall-to-wall heat and...

Ptarmigan wrote: Sun Nov 08, 2020 12:11 pmThe December 1989 freeze was on par with December 1983.

The closest would January 1886, February 1895, and February 1899.

I would not be surprised if we freezes like this in the future.
What makes you think that we will when the entire planet is heating up?

Re: December 1989 Freeze

Same troll that’s been around a while It's a message approved by wxman57. ;) You don’t understand averages versus anomalous events. That was a 1 in 50 year type freeze. Not only will it happen again (probably in my life), taking the setup and strength of the cells, it’s not even a statistical anoma...

A temporary flux from the Arctic's last dying breath. After that, the hot house begins :twisted:

Re: November 2020

Just give it a decade or two - mangroves will forest the Texas coast, and Houston will be struggling to dip below 55 in winter.

Right, so it wouldn't have been near as cold if the clouds weren't overrunning, given how shallow the cold air was. Nothing to be uptight about, man.

That would be the effect, more or less - though there'd be a bit more cyclonic influence without a more consistent monsoon type pattern. It would be more like present day southern/southwest Mexico's.

Re: October 2020

Houston is at the same latitude as India. Delhi is at the same latitude as Houston. India have the Himalayas and Karakoram to the north, which Texas has no high mountain range. That's what allows India to be a climate wet dream - they have huge transverse mountain ranges, so they enjoy nice toasty ...

We'll see. They've seen 100F in February right on the Gulf at Tulum and Villahermosa. And it's already reached Texas, even Laredo and McAllen have seen 100F in February!
