HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) — The cold front that arrived early this morning is bringing the chill! A Wind Advisory for much of Southeast Texas lasts until 6PM Monday, though the winds this afternoon are much lighter than the early morning winds we experienced. The winds also created power-outage issues, at one point nearly 30k customers were without power across Southeast Texas. These gusty winds will also bringing the chill, actual temperatures today will be mostly spent in the upper 40s and low 50s, with feels-like temperatures around 40 degrees.
How cold are we getting with this front?
After a cold and breezy Monday with highs in the low 50s, Tuesday will be another cold day with morning lows in the upper 30s and afternoon highs only in the 50s. Thankfully we’ll have more sunshine around for Tuesday and Wednesday. Wednesday morning is when conditions could be right for a light freeze north of I-10 and the city of Houston with temperatures dropping into the low-mid 30s.
What about some measurable rain or any storms?
We had a few showers as the front moved through, and even behind the front there’s a chance for a sprinkle or shower, but everything that falls today will be light and brief. This is another drier outlook over the next week or two, meaning drought conditions could creep back into the region if they got better earlier this fall.
