Not a big fan of the heat? Hang in there. Today, tomorrow, and Thursday will continue to be oppressive, but there is an increasingly strong signal for temperatures to cool off by 5-10 (maybe even 15 in spots) degrees early next week.

Temperatures are expected to drop below freezing again tonight (they already have in much of northern and western OK). This means any liquid left from yesterday's melting will refreeze. Be careful this morning and watch out for black ice. #okwx #texomawx

We didn't get any new snow last night, but secondary/rural roads that didn't get fully cleared yesterday have refrozen overnight. Give yourself extra time today and remember to always leave extra distance between yourself and other vehicles on icy roads.

Greatest snow accumulations (>6") expected across north/central OK. These snow totals include sleet accumulations of up to 2" across portions of south central/S OK & western N TX. Greatest chances for ice is expected from western N TX into S OK with a corridor of 0.25" possible.

ALT The graphic displays the snowfall and ice amounts for Friday through Sunday.

Winter Precipitation: Below 32°F, snowflakes never melt. With sleet, droplets freeze and form ice before reaching the surface. Freezing rain is caused by rain, above 32°F in the sky, freezing on contact with the cold surface. If the surface temperature is above 32°F, rain will not freeze.

A strong cold front Fri will bring cold arctic air to OK/TX through early next week. Breezy winds will make way for dangerously cold wind chills Sat through Mon morning. Some areas may not rise above freezing for at least 48 hours. Protect the 4 Ps! #txwx #okwx

ALT This graphic shows the forecast temperatures and wind chills for Friday through Monday.

Protect people, pets, pipes and plants from cold weather. People: 1) Minimize time outdoors. 2) Prepare for power outages. 3) Check on the elderly and other vulnerable people to make sure they're ok. Pets: 1) Keep your pets warm, dry and indoors as much as possible. 2) Ensure their food and water doesn't freeze. 3) Limit outside time and keep them bundled up. Pipes: 1) Insulate pipes if possible. 2) Open up sink cabinets to expose pipes to heated air. 3) Disconnect hoses & turn off water to sprinklers. Plants: 1) Know their temperature thresholds. 2) If possible, cover them before the cold weather sets in to help retain some heat.

Chance for >1" of snow across the area is high (>70%). A corridor of higher probs for greater snow amounts may set up across central OK and may be subject to change with the evolution of the system. The highest chances for a glaze of ice will be across S OK and into western N TX.

Continuing to see a potential for an impactful winter weather event Fri-Sun. The main takeaway is hazardous travel conditions are likely for portions of OK & N TX. Wintry mix will be possible Fri, especially S of I-40, before snow becomes the more likely precip type. #txwx #okwx
