That band could clip the southern parts of the Oklahoma City metro by about 9 p.m. The band won’t bring heavy snow, and most areas within it will likely only see a dusting of snow. A small area between Seiling, Canton and Watonga could see as much as an inch of snow. Temperatures will dip into the single digits across much of Oklahoma overnight. Highs on Tuesday will be around 32 degrees, but the wind will pick up slightly. Oklahoma City Public Schools posted on social media that they are still preparing to welcome students to class on Tuesday. 9:45 a.m. Monday Update: KOCO 5 Meteorologist Joseph Neubauer says snow has been reported in Garfield and Logan counties. These are just flurries and likely won’t impact any travel in the areas. A winter weather advisory was issued for the far northwest parts of the state until 6 p.m. Monday. Counties in the area could see more impactful snow, with 1 to 2 inches possible. Even in northwest Oklahoma, Joseph says the snow likely won’t cause major travel issues. Black ice and slick spots are possible, but widespread issues aren’t likely. Precipitation chances from noon to 6 p.m. are highest for northwest Oklahoma and the Panhandle. From 6 p.m. to midnight, Oklahoma City could see a dusting of snow. People living north of the OKC metro could see around a half inch to an inch of snow. 5:45 a.m. Monday Update: KOCO 5 Meteorologist Joseph Neubauer says we’re already starting to see snow in western and northwestern Oklahoma. That’s where we’ll see most of the snowfall through the morning, but there is a chance for a few flurries in central Oklahoma and the OKC metro. Joseph says the better chance for snow in the OKC metro will be later in the afternoon and into the evening. The chance for snow in the OKC metro, however, is not high. The probability for snow is highest in northern Oklahoma, where there’s an 80% chance of snowfall. The OKC metro has a 40% chance of seeing snow, and southern Oklahoma has a 10% to 20% chance. >> Are you prepared for the winter weather?

Northwestern Oklahoma could get 1-2 inches, while parts of the Panhandle could get 2-3 inches. A band from western Oklahoma to Enid and up to Ponca City could get 0.5-1 inch of snow, and southwestern to the OKC metro and northeastern Oklahoma may get an isolated dusting. Snow could cause some issues on the road in northwestern Oklahoma. Joseph says roads may be covered in snow near Guymon, Woodward and Alva, and there could be slick spots from Clinton to Enid and Ponca City. Roads should not be impacted in other parts of the state. The cold and the wind chill should be the bigger impact as the arctic blast continues. Joseph says we’ll see lows in the single digits and subzero wind chills Tuesday morning.
