    Storms going well inside the dry air in the BIg Country, sharp DP front, 70F to about 60F, between Corsicana and DFW. SE humid side to SW 'drier' (not dry, just drier), that seems like it wouldn't help cyclonic vorticity, but it does seem to be a boundary.

    No. I had WxBell until they tripled their rates. Joe Bastardi went completely political, he was once worth reading, back around 2005. He wasn't worth paying for, even with good models, in 2017. Just checked, free models aren't bad there. I had assumed they were PPV only. 15Z HRRR 500 mb low initialized was awfully close in location and windfields to both GFS and NAM 3 hr from 12Z, so it doesn't seem initialization is why they are different later. I miss the HPC model diagnostic discussions.

    For the Texas tornado threat/thread, I am trying to match 500 mb heights in Texas between models and HRRR/RAP, which I assume which be updated, but TT and COD don't show 500 mb for those models. Anyone have a comparison on which model initialized best and is best now? It would affect your snow. Quincy occasionally posts in severe threads, other than that, they are met free.

    Last night ESE of San Antonio.

    I discovered Ryan Hall's YouTube last Spring. He streams some chasers famous enough I've heard of them.

    Latest HRRR interesting near TXK mid/late afternoon, 3 km NAM also seems interested in the general area, near the possible boundary reinforced by the weakening shower activity.

    SWODY Day 1 enahnced, with 10% sig tornadoes and hail, in S Arkansas and a small bit of neighboring TN and MS

    First model run with good sampling of the ULL.

    3km and 12km NAM forecast soundings for DFW have a pronounced veer-back-veer mentioned above with an otherwise juicy sounding. Should temper tomorrow's DFW tornado threat some. SHV near midnight ahead of the QLCS looks more favorable for embedded tornadic supercells. Maybe tomorrow's MOD get shaved a bit on the W side at the 11:30 update.

    Thursday 6 pm, Veer-Back-Veer mentioned above on 3 and 12km NAM soundings in DFW. 80 knots 12km/90 knot 3km deep shear and ~1600 J/Kg MLCAPE on both. I think (I need to watch a You Tube to make sure I'm doing it right) WBZ is around 3 km, a tad high for hail per internet, but who knows. 90 knots shear

    Congratulations.

    Typhoon Tip commented on the longer range Euro ensemble 500 mb pattern and used the number '1888' in his post. He qualified that rather severely.

    I'm following this disturbance for the Thursday 'ENHANCED' ArkLaTex severe episode, noting differences in models, and looking to see when the 500 mb disturbance comes onshore, and 12Z tomorrow is earliest this is RAOB sampled, maybe 0Z, so, for my subforum severe threat, and I'd think your snow threat, it is at least half a day too early to go completely negative.

    Looking at the 12Z GFS point soundings, EHI, etc., this wouldn't be a Day 1 Mod or High. NAM is 'better'. but at 60 hours, not quite in the wheelhouse. NAM is slower/farther West has better point soundings, higher EHI, but still not High risk, IMO. If the NAM stays consistent as the event approaches, Moderate seems doable.
  16. Ed, snow and hurricane fan
    May be a smidge early to trust NAM at midnight Shreveport time just ahead of the storms, but 2K MLCAPE, 90 knots shear, decent hodo. Midnight is a bad time for storms.
  17. Ed, snow and hurricane fan
    Indeed.
  18. Ed, snow and hurricane fan
    Coastal looks to be forming near DeLMarVa.
  19. Ed, snow and hurricane fan
    5-6 hours until it goes to rain per NAM's. 1.7" Kuchera 12 km, 0.8" high res NYC total per COD.

    Mike Seidel is in Worcester, where it isn't snowing yet, Chris Bruin, who I wouldn't know except for the chyron, is in CPK.

    TWC is in Central Park, and mention of a lightning strike at 1 WTC. (Edit to bold, I knew they were in a park, did not know which one)

    Seeing LIE mentioned in storm thread. After we moved to Texas (1981), they renamed NY 495 to I-495, which bothers me, as even number prefixes to a 2 digit interstate is for loops (like I-610 in the Houston inner loop highway) and the LIE is a spur of 95, or should be I-395 or I-595. The I-495 beltway in Massachusetts follows the rule. I'm old enough to remember the Seaford-Oyster Bay Expressway being new, when there was talk of a bridge extending it over the Sound to Connecticut. I see Seaford and Lindenhurst posts, none from Amityville or Massapequa.
