Houston, TX – A strong cold front is set to sweep across southeast Texas this Thanksgiving week, bringing the season’s first freezing temperatures to the region. Residents in areas near I-45 and the Piney Woods should prepare for subfreezing lows starting Friday night into Saturday morning.
According to the National Weather Service in Houston, Friday evening will see temperatures plummet from the mid-40s into the 30s by early Saturday morning. Areas further inland, including Beaumont and Conroe, are at higher risk of seeing freezing conditions overnight. While daytime highs on Saturday will climb back into the low 70s, colder nights are forecast for early next week.
Looking ahead, Thanksgiving Day is expected to remain chilly but mostly sunny, with daytime highs around 74 degrees. A slight chance of showers Wednesday night could affect holiday preparations. Travelers should plan for cooler conditions and stay updated on potential road delays caused by foggy mornings or icy patches in northern areas.
Residents are encouraged to cover outdoor plants, protect pets, and check on neighbors who may need assistance during the drop in temperatures.
The extended forecast shows a warming trend after Thanksgiving weekend, with highs nearing 80 degrees by Monday. However, another cold front could follow in the days after the holiday, bringing another round of brisk weather to southeast Texas.
Stay informed with real-time weather updates from the National Weather Service, and ensure your family is prepared for colder conditions.
