Avionia Smith said the freeze watch stays in place until 10 am Wednesday as cold air settles in and overnight lows remain near to below freezing. In the weather update published by KMVT on October 13, 2026, she also said sunny skies are returning across most of the area.
Smith opened the update with, “Good Evening and Happy Tuesday!” and said highs for Tuesday are in the low 50s. She said high temperatures will gradually warm each day until the low 70s by the weekend, while overnight lows rise to the upper 30s and low 40s.

Smith said a few scattered showers are still expected across the southern half of the viewing area later Tuesday evening. She said the rest of the week turns dry once that rain clears, leaving the freeze watch as the main overnight concern before sunrise Wednesday.
For people in the viewing area, the practical timeline is simple: lows near or below freezing remain the issue overnight, then the warning ends at 10 am Wednesday. After that, temperatures edge higher each day, with the week ending much milder than it began.

KMVT said the warning covers the period before Wednesday morning, when temperatures are expected to stay cold enough for freezing conditions. The forecast also points to a quick turn from the Tuesday night showers in the southern half of the area to dry weather for the rest of the week.
The open question is geographic detail: which locations are included in the freeze watch was not specified in the update. Readers who are planning early Wednesday activities will need to follow the overnight temperature trend, because the coldest stretch comes before the warning expires.
