because the ULL is in MX....hasnt ejected yet across Texas...but it will.....CAK wrote:I mentioned a few pages back if you look at radar, the moisture seems to be getting pushed back off coast and south. Is this expected? Why do I have a feeling we may not see nearly as much moisture as predicted.

"A big bust from the get go. Temps will not get as low tonight and the upper low over NM has shifted east not taking the dive south as the models indicated. The moisture in the Gulf is moving south and east into LA. To many variables that did not come together. Great snow maker for central and north TX. IMO."

I'll be very disappointed if I wake up tomorrow and David Paul has some sad news to report. 
I really think that if this were the case our fine pro mets on the forum and NWS (HGX) would jump all over it, with schools starting to close and roads being taken care of this would have to get out pretty quicklycristina99 wrote:medicalgirl32 wrote:This is what my brother says...of course he is not a professional in any way!

Is he trying to stir the pot?

Thank you!!!!Candy Cane wrote:Okay...here goes:
Some of you are being very childish...and you know who you are. Just stop.
A couple of things you guys need to think about before calling everybody a liar and calling the event a 'bust.'
1.) Very few of you are well versed in the world of meteorology. You do not have the privilage of viewing extensive data from behind the scenes nor do you go on other expert opinions. As opinion is just that...an opinion. It doesn't make BB right any more than me saying it's going to be 80 degrees tomorrow. I can say that all day long, but like Mark Twain said, "it's not the things we don't know that hurt us, but rather the things we know for sure that are true, that just ain't so.
2.) There is not one single thing that has changed in the models except a trend towards HEAVIER QPF. Boys and girls, that equates to higher snowfall totals.
3). This low is far stronger and the air is far colder and the moisture supply is in greater abundance than in 2004. This is NOT the same event.
4.) Did you know that the National Weather Service gets graded on its forecasts? If they issue a watch or warning that does not verify, then they lose government funding. It is crucial that they do the best job possible. A WINTER STORM WATCH/WARNING IS NOT ISSUED LIGHTLY NOR ARE THEY EXPECTING UP TO 4 INCHES OF SNOW IN SOME AREAS IF THERE WAS NOT A GOOD REASON TO BELIEVE SO. This is not just the thinking of HGX but DFW, Austin (who called it a worst case scenerio for them), Corpus and Brownsville. Can all those offices be wrong??????
5.) People really need to quit desguising opinion for facts. I wish there was a rule that you had to produce a link or show a graphic when making statements. If you don't think it will snow, put your money where your mouth is and SHOW US WHY.
I think everybody needs to take a step back, breathe and relax. It IS going to snow area wide starting tomorrow night. I am confident in this. For the first time in 3 winter storms here, I feel good about my chances of accumulating snow in my yard. I just got home from work where i have been starring at this for 7 hours. Believe me, we are not just throwing numbers and percentages around.
I'm wondering the same thing. I think we're on the verge of the evening update. Is that so CC?helloitsb wrote:Well said CC
Edit-BTW anymore input from your guy at HGX? Same stuff?
Thank you and again tell him thanks from all of usCandy Cane wrote:My friend at HGX says Winter Storm Warning by morning more than likely. Could be as soon as the next update.
WOOT!! I had a hunch. Thanks so much!Candy Cane wrote:My friend at HGX says Winter Storm Warning by morning more than likely. Could be as soon as the next update.
