Key West just broke its all-time streak for temps getting above 80. Wish I was there:

In the meantime, I haven’t gotten a run in since Sunday. This cold, damp weather is the worst. At least we’re not in a drought.

Last year at this time we were saying it was supposed to be a cold and snowy winter too. What’s different about this winter?
Reread my post. The background state
But the background state was favorable for us last winter? I remember hearing that last year. Unless I’m just trippin lol
We had a decent North Pac but we were still recovering from the Super Nino... it is much more favorable this year with the combo of Halong contributing to an already favorable WPO/EPO

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Houston/Galveston TX
608 AM CST Fri Nov 15 2019

.AVIATION...
Still quite a bit of fog/low clouds around SE TX this morning.
Did push back the clearing a little bit based on these current
trends. As the NE winds pick up, we`ll likely see things clear
late this morning/early afternoon (15-17Z). VFR thereafter. 41

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 342 AM CST Fri Nov 15 2019/

SHORT TERM [Through Monday night]...
Areas of dense fog situated across the northern 1/3 of the CWA
early this morning. SREF guidance hints that the dense fog advsy
may need to be extended further sw prior to sunrise so we`ll be
keeping an eye on that. In addition, freezing temps will probably
sag into extreme northern parts of the region, so added 3-4 hours
of freezing fog to the grids there. Not expecting any significant
travel impacts, but there could be a thin coating of ice on car
windshields and elevated structures. Fog should burn off by mid
morning and yield mostly sunny skies for the remainder of the day
(mclr skies tonight) with upper ridging & sfc high pressure in
control.

Clouds should begin returning to the area Sunday as the high moves
ewd and moisture makes its way back in from the western Gulf. A
trof will dig southward across the Plains into the Mississippi
Valley this weekend which will send a diffuse frontal boundary
toward the area Sunday night and Monday. It should be moisture
starved so am not anticipating much in the way of precip...just a
weak wind shift which should clear things back out early in the
week. 47

LONG TERM [Tuesday Through Friday]...
Expect a gradual warming trend during the midweek period as
onshore winds resume and increase as lee side pressures fall ahead
of the next mid/upper trof dropping into SoCal. It should begin
kicking out to the east during the second half of the week. Its
associated frontal boundary should be approaching the area late
Thurs or Fri, but not confident whether it`ll make it all the way
off the coast or not but should bring our next decent shot of
rainfall. 47

MARINE...
Winds and seas will be decreasing today as the pressure gradient con-
tinues to weaken. High pressure building into the area will maintain
light offshore winds tonight and Sat. As this high moves further east
by Sun, a light E/SE flow will be developing...just ahead of the next
cold front that is progged to push into the coastal waters late Sun/
early Mon. This front will likely just be a reinforcing shot of cool
dry air with generally light offshore winds. SCEC conditions could be
possible over the offshore waters briefly for Mon. Light onshore winds
are set to return areawide Tues night...slowly strengthening through
the week as the next system moves into and develops over the Central
Plains. 41

Hopefully the dry weather prevails. I need time to sump out the low spots in the back yard. It would be nice to get things dry enough to mow back there!

None of my plants got burned by the light freeze we had. I didn’t have time to cover them. The tree canopy saved them. Thank goodness I did not hit that forecast low of 25!!
