... Winter Weather Advisory in effect from 6 PM this evening to
7 am CDT Sunday...

The National Weather Service in Fort Worth has issued a Winter
Weather Advisory for snow... which is in effect from 6 PM this
evening to 7 am CDT Sunday.

A powerful upper level storm system will move across the region
and result in widespread precipitation across the area. Rain is
expected to become mixed with or change to all snow this evening.
Snowfall accumulations in the advisory area are expected to
average 1/2 inch on elevated and grassy surfaces... but northern
Dallas County could see amounts up to I inch. In addition to the
snow... strong winds of 20 to 25 mph tonight may result in periods
of blowing snow and reduced visibilities.

A Winter Weather Advisory means that periods of winter
precipitation may cause travel difficulties. Be prepared for
slippery roads and plan on some travel delays.

... Wind Advisory in effect from 1 PM this afternoon to 10 PM CDT
this evening...

The National Weather Service in Fort Worth has issued a Wind
Advisory... which is in effect from 1 PM this afternoon to 10 PM
CDT this evening.

Strong northwest winds will invade North Texas later today. Winds
of 20 to 30 mph with gusts to 40 mph can be expected this afternoon
through mid evening. The strong northwest winds are likely to
persist overnight and strengthen again on Sunday.

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

A Wind Advisory means that sustained winds of at least 20 to
30 mph are expected. Winds this strong can make driving
difficult... especially for high profile vehicles. Boaters should
use extra caution when venturing onto area lakes. Residents may
wish to take action to secure trash cans... lawn furniture... and
other lightweight outdoor objects that may be blown around in the
strong winds.

... A chance of snow and freezing temperatures possible this
weekend...

A strong cold front will move through North Texas early Saturday
with cold Canadian air returning to the region. There will be a
chance of snow generally along and north of the I-20
corridor... beginning Saturday afternoon and continuing into the
overnight hours. Areas north of a Graham to Denton to Emory line
have the best chance of accumulating snowfall... which may reach 1
to 3 inches with isolated higher amounts possible on elevated and
grass surfaces. Any snowfall should melt off by Sunday afternoon
as temperatures warm into the lower 40s.

Near freezing temperatures will also return to areas northwest of a
Comanche to Sherman line during the day Saturday. By Saturday night
temperatures will continue to cool to near freezing across the
entire North Texas area. Yet another freeze will be possible Monday
morning. North Texas residents should take appropriate action to
protect sensitive vegetation.

Residents of North Texas should monitor the latest forecasts from
the National Weather Service in Fort Worth for any changes in this
winter event.
