Could Amarillo Finally Get The First Big Snowfall Of The Season?

I awoke this morning to a climate alert. Supposedly, this weekend goes to be chilly and it has the potential to offer us one thing we’ve not seen a lot of this winter.

May Amarillo actually be getting the primary massive snowfall of the season this weekend?

Figuring out The Texas Panhandle, In all probability Not

This morning the possibility for snow this saturday (1/21/23) was fairly strong. In line with the forecast within the early morning hours immediately (1/16/23), at the very least an inch of snow was headed our approach.

an up to date forecast now, it seems like our possibilities for that snow have dwindled from being an nearly certainty to a easy toss of a coin.

We’re now at a 50% probability for lower than an inch. (On the time of this writing.)

By no means Say By no means When It Comes To Panhandle Climate

When you’re from the realm, you already know that there’s by no means any purpose to wager the farm on what you assume the climate goes to do. The reason being that the panhandle climate is liable to doing regardless of the heck it needs, when it needs.

We will go a complete “winter” with out ever seeing snow. Then, there are these years the place we break each winter climate report in existence.

So, on the subject of this weekend the potential is there, however I would not wager your backside greenback on it taking place. We’d, robust emphasis on may, see some snow earlier than midday. After that, it is trying like a standard Texas panhandle winter day. Chilly and windy.

Nonetheless, it could be a good suggestion to ensure your automobile is “winter-weather-ready.”
