Rest of Week

Chances for wintry precipitation develop Wednesday night and continue into early Thursday morning and afternoon. The greatest potential for light snow accumulations is across the far SW Texas Panhandle.

Here is a quick look at the current thinking of precipitation timing beginning Wednesday evening through Thursday afternoon. Snow showers will favor the far SW TX Panhandle, while a cold rain/wintry mix will favor other locations highlighted. Little to no travel impacts are expected with light accumulations, if any. #lubwx #txwx

Lows will range from the upper 20s to around 40 degrees under clear skies and slightly breezy winds.

Highs will range from the 40s to 60s as a front passes through the area during the morning hours. Clear and dry conditions are expected for most of the day, by evening a chance for snow showers will enter the far SW TX Panhandle.

A few snow/cold rain showers are possible Thursday morning, across the northern half of the area. Drier and warmer conditions return this weekend.

Local Weather History For December 2nd...

2011 (2nd-3rd): An upper level storm system tracked over the South Plains of West Texas on the 2nd. This disturbance and
abundant low level moisture created widespread freezing drizzle across the region. Light ice accumulations were quickly
observed after precipitation began. A vehicle accident with a fatality occurred on Interstate 27 in Hale County south of
Hale Center at 4:47 AM. Texas Department of Transportation officials determined that ice accumulation on a bridge was to
blame for the driver losing control of his vehicle. Later on the second and during the early morning hours of the third,
isolated thunderstorms developed. After the thunderstorms ceased, temperatures dropped to near 32° which created
icy road conditions and contributed to several vehicle accidents in the city of Lubbock on the morning of the third. No
serious injuries were reported in Lubbock. Additionally with this event, snowfall totals of less than one inch were
observed across the southwestern Texas Panhandle.
