The Texas Panhandle is set for another impressive snow event beginning tonight Monday March 14th, and peaking around the evening of Tuesday March 15th.
What an amazing winter the Amarillo area has had - I don't know snowfall totals but I'm sure they must be impressive.

Gene and I are seriously looking at doing a snow chase tomorrow (Tuesday 15th) afternoon, taking a drive out from OUN to the AMA area for some late-winter/early-spring snowfall. With amounts expected to be over 10" in places, it's hard to ignore......especially for two weather-starved Normanites.
As an aside - does anybody remember any other particularly snowy Texas Panhandle winters - and, if so - what sort of implications it may have held for the following tornado season out there?? Pure crystal-ball speculation, I know......but fun.
