| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | A vigorous upper level low pressure system moved from West Texas northeast into Oklahoma producing heavier amounts of snow across the western Oklahoma and Texas panhandles, a mixture of ice and snow across the central Oklahoma and Texas panhandles, and mainly freezing rain and sleet over the eastern sections of the panhandles. There were considerable power outages due to the storm and most roads and highways remained closed across the panhandles. Snowfall amounts ranged from eight to ten inches across the northwest and western Texas panhandle to four to six inches across the central Texas panhandle. Ice accumulations of one quarter to one half inch were reported across the northeast and eastern Texas panhandle. One to two inches of sleet occurred over Wheeler county with one half inch to one inch of sleet over Donley county in the southeastern Texas panhandle. The eight and a half million dollar property damage was estimated and combined for all areas affected for the three days the storm lasted. Fifty-thousand people were without power and one thousand poles were down along with three thousand cross arms. |
