…ACCUMULATING SNOWS POSSIBLE MONDAY NIGHT AND TUESDAY…

AN UPPER STORM SYSTEM WILL BRING THE POTENTIAL FOR ACCUMULATING
SNOWS TO THE TEXAS AND OKLAHOMA PANHANDLES EARLY NEXT WEEK.

LOCATION…
ANYWHERE IN THE PANHANDLES COULD SEE SNOW. THERE CONTINUES TO BE
UNCERTAINTY IN THE LOCATION OF THE GREATEST ACCUMULATIONS.

AMOUNTS…
WITH THIS STORM SYSTEM STILL A FEW DAYS OUT…CONSIDERABLE
UNCERTAINTY EXISTS REGARDING ITS TRACK AND STRENGTH. HOWEVER…THE
POSSIBILITY DOES EXIST FOR LIGHT ACCUMULATIONS OF ONE TO FOUR INCHES.

NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE IN AMARILLO AS THE EVENT DRAWS NEAR. FUTURE
STATEMENTS…FORECASTS AND POSSIBLE ADVISORIES WILL BE ISSUED AS THIS
EVENT UNFOLDS.
