Minny_Weather Posted January 12, 2018 Report Share Posted January 12, 2018 Just curious.......does anyone have an opinion whether Texas will see any rain in the next 2 weeks ?Your area should at least get some nice frontal storms over the next 10 days.

Phil Posted January 12, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2018 Torchy this morning. Low/mid 60s at sunrise with humidity close to 100%. The swamp is stirring..but temperatures will drop back down to ~ 10*F tomorrow night. Cold front blasts through tonight and plunges temps something like 25 degrees within an hour. Could mix or change to snow given the anafrontal components, not to mention possible damaging wind gusts if any frontal convection roots to the surface boundary layer..

weatherfan2012 Posted January 14, 2018 Report Share Posted January 14, 2018 The upcoming Miller [nothing]. Lol, that’s exactly they way it’s trended as of late. we actually do better with an active west coast storm pattern then when the Pacific jet is weak weak Pacific jet tend to suck for big storms.just a lot of this light nuances stuff.I also am puzzled why DT is so excited for February not saying a ssw event won`t happen but modeling this winter has been less then great it's hard to be certain of it at the moment the mean trend since 2013 would argure against one it will break at some point just not sure if it's this winter lol.but maybe we can pull one out as some of the data is suggesting I'm more conferdent in a snow storm in March as it seems to be the trend the last few years.the last time we had a warning level event region wide was the blizzard in January 2016 that's a pretty crappy pattern in a storm since.

Blizzard777 Posted January 16, 2018 Report Share Posted January 16, 2018 Mother in law just sent me this picture. That’s a chilly! Otherwise she reported frozen grass. Sounds like the streets are retaining some of the heat from yesterday so ice having issues trying to bond.When I was down there I got her cool weather machine back on line but still having some issues with pressure reading and dew point. Might need to clean the main sensors or order her some new parts. Still love the display of this machine.

Andie Posted January 23, 2018 Report Share Posted January 23, 2018 High winds and dry conditions brought a 2000 acre wildfire a few miles from me today. It was driven by high winds 30-35 moh, higher gusts. Fortunately only ranchland was affected but it can very close to houses and a school. 2 other smaller fires were stopped further west. 10 yrs ago this month a similar fire came to within 1/8 of a mile from my house. It was stopped by golfcourse sprinklers. It's wildfire season in Texas! https://www.nbcdfw.com/news/local/Parker-County-Grass-Fire-Prompts-Evacuations-Burns-200-Acres-470559373.html So.....when will North Texas see some rain !?? 1 Quote Before You Diagnose Yourself With Depression or Low Self-Esteem,...First Make Sure You Are Not In Fact, Just Surrounded By A$$holes. “If I owned Texas and Hell, I would rent out Texas and live in Hell.” Gen.
