Freeze Warning Issued for Monday in Houston Weather Forecast
Houston is bracing for its first freeze of the season early Monday morning, following a cold front that moved through the area over the weekend. The National Weather Service has issued a Freeze Warning for the majority of the region, effective from midnight to 9 a.m.
Freeze Warning Details
The warning covers most of the FOX 26 viewing area, but certain northern counties are exempt since they have already experienced freezing temperatures this season. Coastal counties are also unlikely to see temperatures drop to 32 degrees.
Weather Forecast
- Freezing temperatures expected Monday morning.
- Wind chill could make temperatures feel like they are in the 20s.
- Temperatures typically average around 32 degrees during this time.
Residents are advised to take precautions, particularly for sensitive plants, by covering them to prevent damage. The alert serves as a reminder to protect key assets: people, pipes, pets, and property.
Looking Ahead
After experiencing this chilly weather spike, warmer conditions are forecasted to return by Wednesday, with southerly winds bringing temperatures back up into the mid to upper 70s by late next week. Long-range weather models suggest that Texas may see above-average temperatures leading up to Christmas.
