Impressive storm on the way for the Southern Plains, starting later Friday and continuing through early next week. Strong low pressure will eject out of the Desert Southwest, and have substantial moisture to work with. Right now it is a bit early to tell exactly how it will track, but it should mean some much needed moisture for much of Texas. It could also mean some snow or ice for portions of the Panhandle. The map below is the total expected liquid from the upcoming storm, as forecasted by the GFS Model:

As you can see, some pretty good moisture looks likely for at least the eastern half of the state. This could also be complete with some severe thunderstorms, as the main energy ejects from the southwest.

Here is the expected snowfall from the same model...

Notice that it isn't excited about snow in Texas, but is just to the northwest. And like I said, some icing will be likely in the far northern Panhandle. Stay tuned, as it looks to be a good storm...
