Euro and GFS are both showing a surface low spinning up around the Panhadle of Texas on the 21st around 999mb.

This is commonly known as a Texas Hooker and can get quite nasty.

Some of the great tornado outbreaks were Texas Hookers.

I am especially worried about the heavy snow pack and a warm, moist air - they usually end up making a deadly combo.

About Wednesday, should have a better idea on timing and intensity.

500mb forecast will say a lot.
