Light snow expected across North Texas
Light snow flurries are expected late Monday into Tuesday, according to the NWS.
Much of North Texas will see little to no accumulations, with the better chance of snowfall coming from Central Texas, where half an inch is expected. If Central Texas gets more moisture leading up to early next week, snow accumulations could be between 1 to 2 inches.
As cold weather approaches, the NWS is asking folks to take proper precautions and protect the four P’s: People, pets, pipes and plants.
