| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | An extended period of light freezing drizzle or light freezing rain mixed with light snow and light sleet fell across western portions of North Texas on the 23rd and early on the 24th, producing a thin glaze of ice on most area roads. Dozens of traffic accidents occurred including 59 in Wichita County on the 23rd. There was also a 10 car pile-up in Bellvue in Clay County. Slick roads were also reported in Wilbarger, Foard, and Hardeman Counties, but accidents were less numerous than in Wichita and Clay Counties.
