Texas Storm Chasers

Crashy the cold front is roaring south into Texas today with strong north winds and plummeting temperatures. We expect cold, January-like weather to stick around through the next five days across Texas. Severe storms with damaging winds and a couple of tornadoes are possible through mid-afternoon in the Ark-La-Tex, East Texas, Southeast Texas, and the Golden Triangle. The threat of severe storms will end after 4 PM when storms move out of the state. Our cold front will make it through Far South Texas by 9 PM today. Cold weather with nightly freezing temperatures is expected across nearly all of Texas through Friday. A winter storm with snow, winter mix, and rain is possible beginning Wednesday afternoon in Far West Texas, expanding east into several more regions of Texas from Thursday through Friday morning. Accumulating snow and ice may occur; but the specifics of who/what/where (and even if) remain unclear.

5:44am — A thin band of snow has swept through the northwestern TX Panhandle and has just arrived in Amarillo. May be just enough to coat the grass really quick.

Latest thoughts from NWS Fort Worth include a medium chance for wintry mix late next Thursday into Friday across North Texas. Snow and mix will also be possible extending further into Big Country and Northwest Texas.

SUNDAY SEVERE & RISK: An arctic cold front will be moving southeast across Texas on Sunday. A thin line of thunderstorms, along with an individual storm or two ahead of the line, may move across East Texas, Southeast Texas, and the Golden Triangle late Sunday morning through the afternoon. Like the storms back in December, we expect the storms to exit Texas by dinner time tomorrow. Tomorrow's threat does NOT measure up to the outbreaks back in December, but we may have isolated issues with damaging winds and perhaps a tornado. Just because we don't expect an outbreak doesn't mean you shouldn't keep an eye on the sky. If we have one tornado or damaging wind event tomorrow, and it rolls down your street, it'll be a big deal to YOU. We'll keep you updated and will have severe weather coverage on Sunday if necessary. ~Baldy

One year ago we had lake effect snow off of many North Texas reservoirs during a big cold snap. Here is a quick explanation of what lake effect snow is. The Great Lakes region knows all about this, and this cold season has been quite busy for them so far.

POV: You’re in Texas heading out to work on Monday morning.

With a sharp temperature plummet coming tomorrow into Monday morning, a few of your vehicle’s TPS will trip low.

The Ideal Gas Law constitutes that Pressure and Temperature have a direct variation when all else remains constant (PV=nRT). Average daily changes in temperature won’t trip the sensor, but some folks will go from 60s and 70s today to 20s Monday morning which may be enough to do so.

Storm Chaser Stephen Jones gives us an updated glance at the possibility for in next week:

SNOW IN TEXAS?!..... Hold Up there Cowboys and Cowgirls...

There has been a LOT of chatter going on social media about a "MAJOR" winter storm that will be impacting Texas (and perhaps the Gulf Coast) around the middle-late week, of next week. Seeing some folks throwing out their "favorite" model outputs that is spitting out some insane numbers.

The truth is: There have been a few models that have gone back-and-forth on this solution. The amount of models coming to this solution has been steadily decreasing with each run. While there may be a SLIGHT CHANCE there could be some flakes flying around the Lone-Star State next week, the chances are about as high as the Dallas Cowboys making it to the 2026 Super Bowl.

This day back in 2020 was impressive for chasing across western north Texas. Multiple severe warned supercells marched across western north Texas from near Childress to west of DFW dropping large hail up to 3.25 inches. No tornados reported, thankfully. These images photographed between Childress and Seymour.

Here is the NAMNEST depiction of storms Sunday afternoon along and just ahead of a strong cold front moving from west to east. A low chance for damaging winds and a few tornadoes will extend from Southeast to Louisiana to Eastern Arkansas. A few flies in the ointment look to prevent this event from being anything like last Saturday. -Jason
