The 12Z GFS and Canadian (GEM) agree on more Arctic air next week. Regarding any precip, that remains to be seen.

David Paul has the precip in Wednesday's forecast and has mentioned several times today that we may have sleet Wednesday. That's bold this far away and after a snow forecast with a no show snow. Because of his boldness, my guess is sleet next week is almost a sure thing.

5 days isn't that long especially when you compare it to the current one. We watched it for 10 days!

The 12Z Euro suggests we will not see much of a warmup with all that snow to our N before the next Arctic air mass dives S. That model also suggest a potent Upper Low and a surface low along Coastal TX...

Here we go again...LOL For what it is worth, I have heard that our winters are going to be getting worse as far as the coldness goes. Not sure what the science is behind all of it but I have heard it being said alot the last couple of years...

Well, since David Paul mentioned sleet on his forecast today, does it look like we could get some snow from this next Arctic air this time?

Euro doesn't have as cold of temps and the UL is too late to provide much wintry percip but being so far out a lot can change.

I think we learned a lot from this last run and as a result we will be better prepared. But yes here we go again. :|

12z Euro shows a decent amount of precip over Houston half an inch (qpf) problem is that half of it falls with temps above freezing at all levels including the surface,but it does show 12z Thursday surface temps getting right around the freezing mark (0.1 C) with .16 qpf.Could get a bit icy again...
