    Mesoscale Discussion 0044

    1034 AM CST Sat Jan 24 2026

    Areas affected...Portions of West Texas into central Oklahoma

    Concerning...Winter mixed precipitation=20

    Valid 241634Z - 242030Z

    SUMMARY...An expanding area of mostly sleet will continue northeast
    through the afternoon.

    DISCUSSION...An area of showery precipitation continues to expand
    from West Texas into southwest Oklahoma this morning. The
    precipitation coverage is already more expansive than shown by any
    12Z guidance and it continues to expand. This area of showers is
    mostly sleet thus far, but KTLX CC and the 12Z OUN RAOB would imply
    it will become mostly snow as it approaches I-40 across central
    Oklahoma.=20

    Sleet accumulation of 0.1 to 0.2 inches per hour and snowfall
    accumulation of 0.5 to 1 inch per hour are possible within the
    heavier showers/bands from Northwest Texas into central Oklahoma
    through mid-afternoon.=20

    Expect this area of precipitation to weaken as it moves farther
    northeast during the afternoon. This will likely result in more
    scattered precipitation coverage across this region for a few hours
    during the late afternoon before precipitation rapidly expands this
    evening ahead of the approaching main trough.
