Winter Returns With a Vengeance

Figure 1. Freeze warnings for tonight and tomorrow morning.

Since the passage of yesterday’s front, winter has returned with a vengeance.

Freeze warnings are in effect for both tomorrow morning (see figure 1) and Wednesday morning for a large chunk of the Gulf Coast states.

There is a hard freeze warning for portions of southeast Texas and southwest Louisiana tonight too. A freeze watch is also in effect for the western Florida Panhandle and a small portion of southwest Alabama for tomorrow night.

Tonight: Lows will range from the lower/mid 20s for north/central Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama, with lower/mid 30s near the coast. For the western Gulf Coast — from about Morgan City, LA to Corpus Christi, TX — upper 20s to lower 30s are likely.

Tomorrow night: Similar temperatures are likely. However, upper 20s/lower 30s will make it a bit farther south and east, into the central Gulf Coast region. Temperatures should remain above freezing along the immediate coast though. Also, the Texas Gulf Coast will stay above freezing.
