The Coldest air of the Winter season thus far across South Central Texas is expected early next week. Temperatures are likely to be much below normal. The cold air mass is currently expected to arrive Sunday Night into Monday Morning. The most likely outcome is highs in the upper 20s and 30s on Monday, with lows in the teens for many areas on some mornings Monday through Wednesday of next week. Wind Chills will be even colder, especially on Monday Morning. At this time, chances for wintry precipitation are very low for most of the region. Emergency Management Coordinator Angela Hahn says, now is the time to prepare for hazardous temperatures. Exposed pipes would freeze in these conditions, and people, plants, and pets will all need a warm, safe shelter.
