Winter Storm Warning — Thundersnow for Texas Panhandle

November 12, 2018 Cap Allon

A winter storm warning is in effect from Sunday evening through Monday for the Texas Panhandle with up to 7 inches (18 cm) of snow expected.

The warning covers the Southwestern and West Central Texas Panhandle and includes the cities of Hartley, Channing, Dumas, Vega, Amarillo, Hereford, Canyon, and Palo Duro Canyon.

Winds gusting as high as 35 mph will cause patchy blowing and drifting snow. Visibility could be reduced below 1 mile at times.

Thundersnow is also in the forecast as a brutal arctic front descends unseasonably south.

1140PM: Travel is discouraged across all of the Texas Panhandle until after lunch Monday. Snow continues to fall and is accumulating on roads. Same goes for northeastern New Mexico and it'll go all the way to Oklahoma City later. #phwx #txwx pic.twitter.com/YhD7e7f1eH
