  1. No longer snowing here. Snowed for like 2 hours but could never properly accumulate on the ground. Edit: transitioned back to very light flurries but nowhere near what it was before.
  2. Might actually accumulate on the grass at this rate. Moderate snow still falling but melting on pavement
  3. Southern Collin County, and also getting flakes here. It can't accumulate at this rate either but it's better than whatever that weak stuff was (here) last January
  4. I'd settle for an inch up here near Murphy, TX. Not sure how feasible it is, still waiting for the atmosphere to moisten up enough over here.
  5. It looks like it may already be moving into Tarrant County... so close, yet so far.
  6. Hey guys, I've been trying to follow this closely, but am not very knowledgeable at all in winter weather forecasting/model interpretation (other than staring at snow maps). I appreciate all the insight that y'all are sharing and discussing. I am currently outside any watch/warning/advisory here in Collin County, but I too want in on the action
  7. Storms off the Texas coast have some rotation already, but it also looks like they might be moving almost due north (heading towards or a little east of the Houston metro). Regardless, they have special marine warnings on them for waterspout threats.
  8. How are SSTs and OHC in the W. Caribbean right now? Eta spent a while crawling there.
  9. Pretty sure it's got the right front quadrant nailing Puerto Cabezas right now. Unfortunate how it's smashing into the only big population center in the area. Also seen even more videos of flash flooding already.
  10. I've seen a few people mention that Gilbert and Wilma were at peak intensity even with an extra outer eyewall(?) By that, do y'all mean like at a similar stage as to where Eta currently is (or earlier, or later in the EWRC)? Not that I anticipate a pressure that low, just relative to the life cycle of this storm.
  11. Eta thinking of the wild expectations y'all put out (Not a criticism of y'all who know much more than me, I also thought it'd be sub 910 and still won't throw in the towel on Cat 5)
  12. Already some nasty flooding in Nicaragua. Saw a video on twitter of likely dozens of poor cows being washed away
  13. https://mobile.twitter.com/WXappraiser/status/1323217109111894017 Destroyed radar dome and obliterated trees in Catanduanes.
  14. Easily... Saw Reed say up to 250 mph on Twitter but that's just so difficult to comprehend... Was that him guesstimating or an official figure (again, for gusts)? Edit: Seen a couple other figures of 235 mph gusts, which seems more... realistic, for lack of a better word. Very extreme.
  15. Apparently this thing's gone sub-900? (Not sure if it's official) Looks really neat on satellite.
  16. NHC saying it's now reached hurricane strength, 80 mph and 981 mb
  17. Attention may shift back to the Atlantic soon, but for now, Hurricane Marie has formed in the EPAC. Of note, September went without any hurricanes in this part of the world until now. NHC forecasts it to become a major hurricane w/ a 120 kt peak in around 48-60 hours. Feel free to share any images and discussions below. Hoping for some good satellite images! I'll hand it off to those more knowledgeable now.
  18. So when does this one undergo mysterious RI?
  19. https://mobile.twitter.com/webberweather/status/1307010641581027328
  20. Or we end up with a remnant low tornado outbreak here just because
  21. We've had a few confirmed tornadoes in MN and NE today, activity there will probably keep going a little longer. I hope some chasers are finally getting their nice plains tornadoes with minimal impact to other people and property
  22. Another confirmed tornado near Universal Studios. Orlando metro is having a rough night. And then we get a wind-driven 01z moderate risk for South Dakota
