Strong to severe storms capable of all hazards are possible this weekend into early next week. Timing of the incoming system will impact the exact days for potentially higher end severe weather. The track of the system will play a role in the location for storms. #okwx #txwx

We're still watching the early-to-mid-week period for the potential for:

-Rain across the southern part of our area
-Winter weather potential across the northern part of our area.

We'll continue to refine the forecast as we receive more information. #okwx #txwx

We have placed KTLX into standby until further notice to prevent a larger issue from arising. Not to worry though, the radar is still operational! Should the need arise, we can take it out of standby and use the data. #okwx #txwx
