According to the National Weather Service in Lubbock, skies will remain clear overnight, with lows ranging from 54° in Friona to 62° in Aspermont. Winds will begin shifting to the north by dawn Wednesday as the front moves across the region, increasing storm chances in the far southern Texas Panhandle and northern Rolling Plains.
Lubbock is expected to bottom out at 61°, with similar lows in Childress and Brownfield. Residents in Plainview should prepare for a chillier 56°, while Friona sits near the lowest point at 54°.
