Widespread freezing drizzle and freezing rain developed over the extreme southwestern Texas Panhandle and the northwestern South Plains during the early morning hours of the 19th. By mid morning, numerous accidents had been reported on area roadways. Icy conditions contributed to at least a dozen auto accidents in Bailey, Castro, and Hale Counties. No major injuries were reported. Ice accumulations increased through the day, however, and between one quarter and one half inch of ice glazed most objects. A thin glaze also contributed to a single vehicle roll-over along Interstate 27 in northern Lubbock County. Thick icing damaged Texas Tech University West Texas Mesonet weather instruments in Castro and Parmer Counties.
The freezing precipitation transitioned to all snow during the late evening hours. By the time the snow storm had subsided early on the 20th, snow accumulations between one and four inches had been deposited atop the ice. At least two vehicular accidents were reported in Hockley County on snow packed and icy highways. No injuries were reported.
Reported snow accumulations were as follows: 4 inches at Friona (Parmer County), 4 inches at Muleshoe (Bailey County), 3 inches at Hart (Castro County), 3 inches at Levelland (Hockley County), 3 inches at Littlefield (Lamb County), 2 inches at Denver City (Yoakum County), 2 inches at Dimmitt (Castro County), 2 inches at Otlon (Lamb County), 1 inch at Lubbock (Lubbock County), 1 inch at Morton (Cochran County), 1 inch at Plains (Yoakum County), 1 inch at Plainview (Hale County), 1 inch at Sundown (Hockley County), and 1 inch at Tulia (Swisher County).
