Arctic Blast Likely!

We will be seeing some Jekyll & Hyde weather starting on Sunday this next week.

High pressure in the east with result in southeast winds whipping in from the gulf and advecting rich low level moisture into the eastern half of Texas early in the week. As it does, there will be a decent chance of rain intermittently from Monday-Wednesday. You'll think we traveled back in time with highs near 80 and dewpoints topping out in the upper 60's in Houston by mid week.

However, this will all likely change on Thursday morning, as it looks like the strongest cold front of the season so far will drive its way into the deep south. Behind this front will be a blast of cold air straight from northern Canada. This front is going to dry us out a ton with dewpoints in some places in Texas dropping as low as the negative numbers. The Houston area might see dewpoints in the teens Friday afternoon with a high that might struggle to the mid 50's. I would also expect on Thursday and Friday night for there to be Freeze warnings issued throughout central and east TX with lows nearing 30 degrees F.

So... looks like you can make use of your beanie soon. Just hold on for the next 5 days and winter will make its arrival!
