"The bottom line remains: It's going to be flat out windy Friday morning into early afternoon, when the Panhandles can expect 30-40 mph sustained winds. The track of the upper level storm system will then dictate who sees the highest gusts of 60 to 70+ mph," NWS Amarillo wrote on X.

The strongest winds will be blasting across parts of West Texas and the Panhandle, where gusts could reach 80 mph Friday afternoon.

On Thursday at 2:07 p.m. a high wind warning was issued by the NWS Fort Worth TX valid for Friday between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m. The warning is for Wise, Denton, Collin, Parker, Tarrant, Dallas, Hood, Johnson,
