Corpus Christi, TX – Residents across South Texas should prepare for noticeably colder mornings starting Sunday, as a strong cold front brings the chilliest temperatures the region has seen in recent weeks.
According to the National Weather Service Corpus Christi, early morning temperatures Sunday and Monday are expected to fall into the upper 30s to mid-40s, with wind chill values making it feel even colder for those heading outdoors before sunrise.
Forecast data shows overnight lows ranging from 38 to 44 degrees, while wind chills could dip between 35 and 40 degrees, especially in coastal and open areas where breezy conditions persist. While these temperatures are not extreme by national standards, they are well below typical South Texas averages and may catch some residents off guard.
The colder conditions are expected Sunday and Monday mornings, with the greatest impact during early commute hours. Officials say temperatures should gradually rebound later in the day, but mornings will remain brisk.
The National Weather Service advises residents to dress in lightweight, warm layers, especially children, seniors, and anyone spending extended time outdoors. Gloves, hats, and wind-resistant outer layers are recommended for added protection.
Safety officials are also reminding residents to use space heaters carefully, keeping flammable items at least three feet away, and never leaving heaters unattended.
While no freeze warnings have been issued at this time, officials encourage limiting prolonged outdoor exposure during the coldest hours and checking on vulnerable neighbors.
