I just stepped outside in The Woodlands and the temps are definitely starting to tumble.

Dewpoints:

1°F in Waco
5°F in Austin
9°F in Hearne
12°F in College Station
24°F in Conroe
26°F at Hooks

Temps will start tumbling soon. Say goodbye to the 50s...

54.3 F here with a dew point of 37F. Still a long ways to go for us.

It's time for me to plug my favorite portable weather instrument, the kestrel 3000. It's a handheld wind meter, with temp and humidity sensor that I've found to be very reliable and highly accurate. They can be had for about $140 on amazon. I measured a relative humidity of 1% in the Guadalupe mountains of West TX several years back while carrying it on a hike.

Maybe the city will see snow next winter. Until then, take care everyone!

February has some of the biggest freezes and heaviest snowfall.

I think snow in the city itself is probably a lost cause, except maybe a little finale on the backside when the system moves out.

But things are looking-up if you want ice and a day at home.

I know everyone is focused on the potential event that is at our doorstep, but we are near the end of January and a new month is just ahead. The teleconnection indices as well as the various Global operational and ensemble guidance is suggesting a very active early February with additional wintry potential. Perhaps someone would like to start a February Topic as we look ahead to a new month... ;)

I'm going to take the ''never watch a pot of boiling water'' theory and put it to use in getting some rest. I refuse to stay glued to a window all night long looking for a flake (yeah right). I told Srain in a private conversation earlier that I have a severe case of ''Analysis Paralysis.'' haha. I find myself constantly refreshing the NWS homepage for temp updates even though they only come once an hour. I'm seriously obsessed and need to be stopped and tranquilized. haha.

With dewpoints so low to our north, I know the cold is coming but it's depressing as hell to see 50 at IAH still.

Color me impatient. Hey, I'm human too and I get just as excited as you all and I will be bummed as all get out, bordering on rage, if we don't get anything (which I don't foresee at this time). I'm just sayin' that I feel what you guys do. I WANT THIS BAD. haha
