February-Comfortable Days/Cool Nights To The Month

[weatherguy425]

Ended up with around 5 inches of snow in northwest Lubbock, peak gusts were probably in the 55-60 mph range as well; all while snowfall rates were likely above 1 inch per hour. Below is a picture taken outside of my apartment...

Hmmmm......

From this mornings Houston-Galveston AFD:

THE ONLY MENTIONABLE
PRECIPITATION CHANCES WILL OCCUR LATE FRIDAY OR EARLY SATURDAY
ACROSS THE WESTERN CWA. A SHORTWAVE DISTURBANCE DIVING SOUTH ALONG
THE BACKSIDE OF NORTHEASTERN U.S. TROUGHING FRIDAY...IN LINE WITH
A REINFORCING COLD FRONT...WILL TRACK STRAIGHT DOWN INTO THE COASTAL
BEND. THERE MAY BE ENOUGH LIFT...WITH A MOIST ENOUGH DOWNSTREAM
ENVIRONMENT (AROUND 0.5 INCH PWATS)...TO INITIATE VERY LIGHT
PRECIPITATION (-SN) WITHIN A SUB-FREEZING AIR MASS. 1000-500MB
THICKNESS VALUES IN THE LOWER 530 DAMS ARE FORECAST TO REACH THE
MATAGORDA BAY REGION WITH FRIDAY NIGHT/SATURDAY MORNING NEGATIVE
SINGLE DIGIT 85H TEMPERATURES. PWAT VALUES ARE NOT EXTREMELY HIGH
BUT WESTERN-SOUTHWESTERN FORECAST AREA SOUNDINGS DO SHOW DEEP
ENOUGH BELOW FREEZING MID-LEVEL SATURATION IN SUPPORTING VERY
LIGHT SNOW OR FLURRIES. THE MAIN QUESTION WILL BE WHETHER THERE
WILL BE ENOUGH LIFT FROM EITHER THE SHORTWAVE (VORT MAX)...OR FROM
FALLING INTO A MORE-FAVORABLE LF QUAD WITHIN A NORTH-SOUTH JET
SPEED MAX...IN GENERATING ANY PRECIPITATION AT ALL. ALTHOUGH
SURFACE TEMPERATURES WILL BE SLIGHTLY ABOVE FREEZING...FEEL THERE
COULD BE ENOUGH LOWER LEVEL ZERO WET-BULBING TO DRIVE THEM DOWN
TO NEAR FREEZING THROUGH MIDNIGHT SATURDAY.
