Frigid temps, single digit wind chill Friday evening

Arctic Air remains entrenched across SE Texas with more dangerously cold temperatures in the teens and low 20s expected overnight. A Hard Freeze Warning continues for SE Texas until noon Saturday and a Wind Chill Advisory is now in effect until 10 a.m. Saturday. Wind chill values are expected to dip into the single digits and low teens overnight which will once again create a frostbite danger to exposed skin. Christmas Eve and Christmas Day will have chilly starts but we will climb to near 40 Saturday and close to 50 Sunday. Big time warming trend is in store next week as we get close to wrapping up 2022. 70s are back by Wednesday and Thursday! For now though, make sure you are staying safe and protecting yourself, pipes, plants, and pets from the cold!
