Friday night’s temperatures will drop below freezing in areas where skies are clear, mostly for folks along and north of Interstate 20. The D-FW area will go from 37 degrees during the day Friday to 27 degrees Friday night. Rain chances will start to move south, to Central Texas.

Simple steps like allowing faucets to drip and covering outdoor pipes can save you from expensive repairs during this prolonged cold front.

Freezing precipitation is out of the forecast for now, but cold temperatures will prevail in North Texas for a few more days.
