Notes

Transcript of script: "Apr12 (New top Weather) -- Dense fog has moved into parts of the Texas panhandle early today in place of light snow and scattered rain, which has fallen across the mostly cloudy southeast half of the state. Temperatures near dawn have dipped to freezing or a little below in the panhandle-plains sector while ranging up to the 50's in deep south Texas. Snow dusted the Amarillo area lightly during the night atop a one-inch fall in that part of the panhandle around midday yesterday. Forecasters are calling for occasional light sprinkles during the day near the coast and a little rain or snow around El Paso in far west Texas. Readings early today have sagged to 28 degrees at Amarillo, Childress and Dalhart; Lubbock has reported 31 degrees and Wichita Falls had 32. On the other end of the thermometer, Galveston had 53 degrees and Brownsville 57 at the same hour. RW74OACS"
