...WINTERLIKE WEATHER EXPECTED SATURDAY...

A cold, blustery, wet, and for some, snowy day is expected
Saturday. A strong storm system developing over Arizona and Utah
today has already been responsible for some areas receiving
rainfall last night and today. This storm system will continue to
bring periods of rain tonight through Saturday and into Saturday
evening. The rain is likely to change to snow across the far
southwestern Texas Panhandle and parts of the South Plains on
Saturday as the storm system moves out across Far West Texas and
onto the southern High Plains.

The heaviest snowfall and greatest accumulations are expected to
be mainly to the north and west of a Muleshoe to Tulia line where
2 to 4 inches will be possible. Confidence decreases farther to
the south, but some accumulation of snow could occur as far south
as the southern South Plains and as far east as areas along and
just east of the Caprock escarpment from Crosbyton northward.
People with travel plans for Saturday should stay abreast of the
latest information and be prepared to adjust those plans as
necessary.

Total rainfall and liquid equivalent from tonight through
Saturday evening of 1 to 1 1/2 inches are forecast for all of the
South Plains, Rolling Plains, and far southern Panhandle.

Saturday will be the coldest day with temperatures holding nearly
steady from morning lows in the 30s and 40s with the potential for
falling temperatures during the afternoon. In addition, north
winds of 20 to 30 mph will result in wind chill temperatures from
the teens and 20s northwest to the 20s and 30s southeast
throughout the day.
