...EXTREMELY COLD TEMPERATURES AND A WINTRY MIX EXPECTED THIS FRIDAY
INTO THE WEEKEND...
An arctic cold front will bring very cold temperatures to West Texas
as early as late Thursday night. This will result in Friday`s high
temperature possibly occurring before sunrise with temperatures
dropping steadily through the day. Saturday will be the coldest day
with high temperatures struggling to reach into the mid teens. Low
temperatures Saturday and Sunday mornings will be in the single
digits area wide with near zero degree lows possible Sunday morning
across the far southern Texas Panhandle and the northern South
Plains. Dangerously low wind chills are also expected Saturday and
Sunday mornings, dropping to below zero area wide. Temperatures are
not expected to rise above freezing until Monday afternoon.
A mix of snow, sleet, and freezing rain will also be possible Friday
evening through Sunday afternoon. At this time, the best potential
for freezing rain will be across the southern and central Rolling
Plains Friday evening before transitioning to snow possibly mixed
with sleet around midnight Friday night. Though any ice
accumulations are expected to be light, this will create hazardous
driving conditions. The chance for freezing rain across the South
Plains, far southern Texas Panhandle, and northern Rolling Plains is
low.
Stay tuned to the National Weather Service forecasts for updates and
additional information over the coming days.

...BITTER COLD TEMPERATURES AND A WINTRY MIX THIS WEEKEND...
An arctic cold front will bring bitter cold air into west central
Texas starting Friday and lasting through this weekend. Temperatures
will remain in the teens and 20s Saturday and Sunday with wind chill
values as low as 5 below zero to 10 above zero.
For precipitation, expect widespread light freezing rain and sleet
across much of the area Friday night through Saturday night. There
is a low chance of moderate to heavy freezing rain which would bring
significant icing and possible weather related power outages.
Travel will become hazardous and nearly impossible if there is major
ice accumulation. In addition, some snow is possible across the Big
Country with a few inches of accumulation.
Please be prepared for possible winter weather this weekend
and keep up with the latest weather information and forecasts.

...A TROPICAL DISTURBANCE...INVEST 92W...HAS MOVED NORTHWEST INTO
YAP STATE...
A broad tropical disturbance, now designated as Invest 92W, is
gradually moving northwest into Yap State. Trailing trade-wind
convergence may prolong showery weather through at least Wednesday
night, but the threat of heavy rainfall, gusty winds and choppy seas
is expected to subside as the disturbance moves farther away to the
northwest. This will be the last update of the Special Weather
Statement for Chuuk.
Residents and mariners can monitor the latest forecasts for the
region at weather.gov/gum/PublicForecasts and any information shared
by WSO Chuuk for their local region.
