An upper level low moved east out of the four corners region and across the Texas Panhandle. A strong arctic cold front pushed through the Texas Panhandle which, along with the upper low, combined to produce heavy snow and whiteout to near whiteout conditions across all of the Texas Panhandle due to strong winds and blowing snow. The visibility in most locations was reported to be near a quarter of a mile or less. A high wind gust occurred at the Dumas Texas AWOS station located three miles west of Dumas Texas. Blizzard conditions occurred over the south central Texas Panhandle. Snowfall amounts ranged from around two to four inches across much of the western Texas Panhandle to around ten to twelve inches across the eastern Texas Panhandle. The snow was very difficult to accurately measure due to the strong winds which resulted in the blowing and drifting of the snow. Snow drifts were reported to be around one to two feet. No damages or injuries were reported.
