It's Herzog. Hype is what he does.

Herzog is probably my fav on air met in Houston. David Paul is up there too. I’ve never personally seen on air mets hype anything. They’re all usually on the conservative side.

David has been one of my fav ones for years now. He occasionally even talks about the LR and explains how things work.

Wind chills, as was stated above

Herzog doesn’t hype
David Paul doesn’t hype

When you have a population - half of which is south of I-10 - not at all acclimated to it, wind chills approaching single digits are, indeed, dangerous.

I’d make a large bet with a bookie right now, that we end up greater than 3.5F below normal for the month.

Yes, I’m that confident. I think it could end up 10–12 below if the crawl through 8 and 1 slows further. We might be extending this below normal streak, week over week into week 3 of February. I am not confident in that, but it’s becoming more of a possibility.

"You said he was in danger,"

"I said, 'Grave danger?'"

"You said, 'Is there any other kind?'" :lol:

If that panned out, it would be one of the largest snow events in Southeast Texas in years.
Since the late 1800s, for Houston at least.
That would be an outlier. It would shut down the city for days.

It's 33°F here already. We're set for 12+ hours of freezing weather. N wind at 14. Wind chill in the 20s.

We should make the low 20s. I'm going with 22°F after a 26°F low last night.
