Winter weather is on the way to the Panhandles Wednesday afternoon
into Thursday. A weather system is expected to move over the Four
Corners Wednesday and then track east across New Mexico on
Wednesday night. Out ahead of this system a strong cold front,
associated with a much larger cold air mass over Canada will bring
cold enough temperatures to the Panhandles to allow the
precipitation to be in the form of snow.
It`s anticipated that this system will produce some snow bands,
possibly a narrow area of snow. These band locations could range
from the Oklahoma Panhandle down to the southern Texas Panhandle.
Right now there`s high uncertainty on the location of the snow
bands, so much that winter highlights are currently on hold. As
the system approaches and we narrow down the areas that have the
greatest chances of impactful accumulating snow, then we`ll add
winter highlights as needed.
Right now areas covered in this statement have about a 30 to 60
percent chance of receiving at least an inch of snow between
Wednesday afternoon, and Thursday evening. But if these turn out
to be narrow snow bands, then there could be several areas that
receive little to no snow, while more isolated areas pick up 1 to
2 inches of snow. And those same areas would have about a 10
percent chance of greater than 2 inches of snow.
As it stands right now the best chance for snow to occur in
Oklahoma to northwest Texas would be mid day Wednesday through
midnight Wednesday night. West of Amarillo to Guymon has the best
chance for snow from 9PM Wednesday through about 6 AM Thursday
morning. And east of that same line would be from 3AM to 3PM
Thursday.

This hazardous weather outlook is for portions of central...east
central...south central and southeast Colorado.
.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight
Snow will fall across nearly all of the region today. The most
impactful snow will fall over all of the mountains and valleys,
and along all of the I-25 corridor region.
Over the far eastern plains, it will be relatively warm with high
temperatures in the mid 30s, and this will limit snow
accumulations over this region to mainly grassy areas.
Over the I-25 corridor, with respect to timing of the heaviest
snowfall, the heaviest snow will fall during the morning into the
mid afternoon time period in the Pikes Peak region. For the Pueblo
region extending down towards Walsenburg, the heaviest snow will
fall from late this morning through the afternoon time period. For
the Trinidad region, the heaviest snowfall will occur from this
afternoon into the evening hours. Accumulations will range from 3
to 9 inches, with the heaviest snow along the I-25 corridor region
falling in the Walsenburg area.
For the mountains, the heaviest snow will occur over the Sangre De
Cristo mountains, where over a foot of snow will be possible.
The San Luis valley should see 3 to 6 inches of snow, with the
heaviest snow falling on the western side of the valley floor.
Although the snow is likely to be heavy at times with this storm,
the air temperatures will not be all that cold, and winds will be
relatively light. Additionally, most of the heaviest snow will
fall during the daylight hours.
.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Thursday through Tuesday
Northwest flow at mid levels will occur through this period, This
will allow for several disturbances to move across the region.
However, most, if not all, of the precipitation during this period
will fall over the central mountains. The best chance of snow over
the central mountains will be Friday into the weekend. Overall,
there will be a gradual warming trend through this time period.
.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
Weather conditions that meet reporting criteria for spotters will
be be near certain over the entire region.
