Winter Storm Warning issued January 22 at 11:41AM CST until January 25 at 12:00PM CST by NWS Lubbock TX
* WHAT...Heavy mixed precipitation likely. Total snow and sleet
accumulations in excess of 4 inches are likely across portions of
the region and ice accumulations in excess of one tenth of an inch
are possible.
* WHERE...The South Plains, Rolling Plains, and the far southern
Texas Panhandle.
* WHEN...From noon Friday to noon CST Sunday.
* IMPACTS...Roads will become slick and hazardous, and travel could
be extremely difficult. The hazardous conditions could impact the
Friday evening commute. Power outages and tree damage are possible.
Persons are urged to stay indoors until conditions improve. If you
must go outside, dress in layers. Several layers of clothes will
keep you warmer than a single heavy coat. Cover exposed skin to
reduce your risk of frostbite or hypothermia. Gloves, a scarf, and a
hat will keep you from losing your body heat.
Persons should delay all travel if possible. If travel is absolutely
necessary, drive with extreme caution and be prepared for sudden
changes in visibility. Leave plenty of room between you and the
motorist ahead of you, and allow extra time to reach your
destination. Avoid sudden braking or acceleration, and be especially
cautious on hills or when making turns. Make sure your car is
winterized and in good working order.
