Major Winter Storm to Bring Snow and Ice from the Central Plains to the Mid-Atlantic

A major winter storm will produce widespread significant impacts from the central Plains across the Ohio and Tennessee valleys, and into the Mid-Atlantic region this weekend into Monday. Areas between central Kansas and Indiana, especially along and north of Interstate 70, are likely to receive heavy snowfall. Icing is likely from eastern Kansas into the southern Appalachians.

Fog continues across portions of the south and eastern Panhandles this morning, with some areas of dense fog. .
Snowfall totals Midnight Saturday night through Sunday noon are expected to be around an inch to an inch and a half in Beaver County with less than on inch in the rest of the Oklahoma Panhandle and the northeast Texas Panhandle. Some flurries will be possible as far south as Interstate 40.
Saturday night into Sunday morning will be quite cold with widespread wind chills in the low teens to single digits. The far northeast may even see some negative wind chills.
With cold air moving in and windy conditions out of the north in combination with the cold air, we're looking at the warmest wind chills in the single digits for the northeast and the mid 20s to the southwest. It will be a cold one.
Various weather types expected tonight across the Oklahoma Panhandle with the main concern being some light icing due to freezing drizzle, and possibly some light snow accumulations.
While confidence is not high that we'll have enough moisture for freezing rain, the potential for freezing drizzle and freezing fog across the northeast Panhandles is certainly a concern, especially in Beaver County. A little less concern for the northern Texas Panhandle and Texas County, but still a low to medium chance of light ice accumulations, can make travel hazardous.
We'll have strong north winds for quite a bit of the overnight period tonight and they will peak on Sunday morning into early afternoon. These winds will be accompanied by much colder air, and that will also result in some very cold wind chills down to the low teens in the south to negative single digits to the northeast (See lowest wind chill Sunday graphic).
