...WINTER STORM WARNING IN EFFECT UNTIL 6 AM CST WEDNESDAY...
...FLOOD WATCH IN EFFECT FROM TUESDAY MORNING THROUGH THURSDAY
AFTERNOON...

This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for northeast Texas.

.DAY ONE...This afternoon and tonight.

Light freezing drizzle will continue this afternoon, as a shallow
cold airmass continues to filter into the region. Precipitation will
increase tonight, with more significant ice accumulations between
one quarter and one-half inch possible. This could result in
hazardous driving conditions on bridges and overpasses overnight.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Tuesday through Sunday.

Areas of rain will increase on Tuesday and continue through late
Thursday, ahead of a slow moving upper level storm system that will
shift east from Northern Mexico/the Desert Southwest into the
Southern Plains and Lower Mississippi Valley. Widespread rainfall
amounts of two to four inches are expected, with isolated higher
amounts, which will result in the potential for flooding of low
lying, poor drainage areas as well as additional rises on area
waterways. In addition, the potential for light freezing rain will
exist Tuesday morning and again Tuesday night and Wednesday morning.
Ice accumulations between one quarter and one half inch will be
possible. Bridges and overpasses could become slick resulting in
travel impacts. Also, power outages and tree damage are likely due to
ice accumulation.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Spotter activation may be needed.
