HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) — We’ve got another blast of arctic air blowing our way, and this pattern change will make for some chilly and windy weather Friday and Saturday.
A chilly northwest wind will push temperatures down into the upper 30s by sunrise on Friday. We’ll have more clouds than sun, making it difficult for temperature to climb out of the 40s. Then the arctic air will blow in Friday night, making for a cold and blustery Saturday.
How cold will it get behind the next arctic front?
It won’t be nearly as cold as what we just experienced. That said, we will likely see lows in the 20s again this weekend. A Cold Weather Advisory is in effect for most of Southeast Texas Saturday morning as wind chills drop down into the 15-25 range near sunrise. A Freeze Watch is also in effect from 9 p.m. Saturday to 9 a.m. Sunday. Make sure all people, pets, and livestock have a warm place to shelter Friday night and Saturday.
Will we get a chance for any frozen precipitation with this next front?
No. This front will pass through dry, and no precipitation is expected behind the front.
This is too cold for Houston! When will it warm up again?
After this frigid weekend, we should have more seasonal temperatures with lows in the 40s and highs in the 60s. By next Wednesday we could even have a “warm” rain with temperatures near 60.
