Weekend Weather Update: Wintry Mix Expected in Northern Texoma, Terrific Thanksgiving Weather for Green Country, and Nice Travel Conditions Until Winter Weather Arrives

A wintry mix is possible in northern Texoma this weekend as two cold fronts approach the area. Rain chances return on Saturday afternoon, with temperatures staying above freezing during the day. However, temperatures are forecasted to drop to or just below freezing overnight, leading to the possibility of a wintry mix in Texoma. The ground is expected to be warm enough to prevent much accumulation, but areas near I-40 in far northern Texoma may experience slick conditions on Sunday morning. Temperatures will warm up above freezing during the day on Sunday, dissipating any slick conditions.
