29°F this morning. A string of freezes up in the NW territories. 66°F today before a dry FROPA tonight and on Friday. Too bad with cold air in place.
The East Coast, especially NC may bomb out with a cold core Nor'easter.

Strong cold front will move across the area on Friday
Light freeze Saturday morning and hard freeze likely Sunday morning
No precipitation with or behind the front.
Another arctic high pressure cell will drop down the plain today into Friday resulting in a strong frontal passage. The initial front will pass through the area this evening, but the “real” cold air does not arrive until later on Friday. There is only a brief window today for moisture to return ahead of this front and nearly all guidance does not provide sufficient moisture ahead of the boundary to produce any rainfall over the area. Post frontal air mass will be dry with mostly clear skies. Gusty northerly winds will develop late tonight into Friday and Friday night driving wind chills well into the 20’s and upper 10’s on Saturday morning.
Saturday morning:
Lows are forecast in the upper 20’s for the areas north and west of the Houston metro area to near freezing over the metro area and then around the low to mid 30’s toward the coast. Gusty northerly winds of 10-20mph during this period will result in low wind chills from the upper 10’s to the mid 20’s.
High temperatures on Saturday will struggle to reach the lower 40’s with continued movement of cold air into the area even under sunny skies.
Sunday morning:
Strong high pressure settles nearly directly overhead on Sunday morning and this will be the coldest morning with clear skies and near clam winds. Lows range from the upper 10’s/low 20’s north and west of the Houston metro area to mid 20’s metro area and toward the coast. Wind chills will be near air temperatures with near calm conditions.
A slow warm up into early next week as the arctic high pressure begins to move eastward and winds return to the south.
