…FRIGID TEMPERATURES WITH LOW WIND CHILLS ACROSS THE AREA OVERNIGHT…
ANOTHER SURGE OF COLD AIR WILL PUSH THROUGH THE AREA BEHIND AN
ARCTIC FRONT THIS EVENING AND OVERNIGHT TONIGHT…DROPPING OVERNIGHT
LOW TEMPERATURES INTO THE 10S AND 20S FOR MOST OF THE AREA.
THE WARMEST TEMPERATURES TONIGHT…FREEZING TO NEAR FREEZING…WILL OCCUR
ALONG THE RIO GRANDE. TONIGHT/S LOW TEMPERATURES COMBINED WITH NORTHERLY
WINDS AT 10-20 MPH WILL PRODUCE WIND CHILL VALUES IN THE SINGLE
DIGITS AND TEENS FOR MUCH OF THE AREA. ANY ICE THAT DID NOT MELT
ON ROADS THIS AFTERNOON IN THE NORTHEAST PERMIAN BASIN WILL NOT MELT
OVERNIGHT TONIGHT…LEAVING BRIDGES AND OVERPASSES ESPECIALLY
VULNERABLE TOMORROW MORNING.
MONDAY MORNING/S TEMPERATURES WILL UNFORTUNATELY PROVIDE A RUDE
AWAKENING FOR THE AREA…ESPECIALLY FOR SOUTHWEST TEXAS AS TODAY/S
ARCTIC FRONT STALLED BEFORE MAKING IT THAT FAR SOUTH. REMEMBER TO PROTECT
PLANTS…PETS…PIPES…AND PEOPLE FROM THE COLD TONIGHT.
