Amarillo, TX – Early morning commuters across the Texas Panhandle should watch for patchy freezing fog, especially in eastern areas, which could lead to reduced visibility and slick roadways, according to the National Weather Service in Amarillo.
The fog threat is expected to diminish after sunrise, giving way to a warmer and drier afternoon. Highs will climb into the upper 40s and low 50s, marking a noticeable improvement from the colder midweek conditions. Calmer weather is forecast to persist through the weekend.
Forecasters say temperatures will seesaw slightly over the coming days — warming into Saturday before cooling again early next week. The overall trend remains dry and seasonably mild, with no major precipitation expected.
Residents are advised to use caution on bridges and rural roads early this morning where freezing fog may linger, then enjoy a more comfortable afternoon as skies clear.
