As has been said on this forum many times in the past EVERYTHING has to come together just right for wintry precipitation to pan out down here and even the smallest variations in the conditions, especially in the upper levels, can cause big differences. Lets not forget that just 3 days ago unexpected snow banding set up north of the metro area and some woke up to a surprise of multiple inches of snow. Now I am by no means saying that will happen tomorrow but it should illustrate the fact that with these events we can forecast in a general sense but we wont truly know until precipitation starts falling.
In New Orleans do you think we will have to worry about ice accumulating on surface streets?wxman57 wrote:My initial observations looking out across TX and OK today are that the airmass is not as cold as the models had been predicting a few days ago. This is why the models have trended a little warmer with temps in the past few runs. I'm not too hopeful of seeing any snow in central Houston tomorrow. Can't rule it out, but I'm expecting mostly freezing rain and sleet to ice up bridges/overpasses during the afternoon. Surface roads will probably remain ice-free. Similar to last Friday.
No, not on surface streets. North of the lake, maybe.Snowman wrote: In New Orleans do you think we will have to worry about ice accumulating on surface streets?
