Severe Weather System Brings Chill and Chaos to Houston this Weekend
A powerful cold front is expected to sweep through the region on Saturday, bringing with it a chance of severe weather, including large hail, damaging wind gusts, and brief, isolated tornadoes. The National Weather Service has issued an ABC13 Weather Watch for the area, cautioning residents to be prepared for the worst.
As the storm system moves into the area, temperatures will plummet, making it feel like winter by Monday. Daytime highs will only reach the 40s, with a small chance of lingering rain showers in some areas. However, the cold front is expected to bring widespread snow across the northern Plains and Midwest, leading to travel delays over the holiday weekend.
The severe weather threat will be highest on Saturday night, when the actual cold front arrives. At this point, damaging wind gusts and large hail are more likely than tornadoes. However, if thunderstorms do develop in the afternoon, they could rotate, increasing the risk of tornadoes.
Residents are advised to stay tuned to local news and weather reports for updates on the storm system's progress. The National Weather Service has issued multiple alerts for the region, including a high-risk weather alert for damaging wind gusts and large hail.
In the aftermath of the cold front, temperatures will remain in the 40s throughout Sunday and Monday, with widespread rain showers expected to continue through the day. This will lead to chilly conditions, with a small chance of freezing overnight temperatures.

severe weather system is gonna hit this weekend & i'm low-key worried about those potential tornadoes 
they should def be keeping an eye out for that. hope everyone gets ready and stays safe! 
the 40s feel like winter already, gotta love those winter vibes 
And on the other hand, I'm like "NOOOO! Don't ruin our spring vibes with all that cold and wind!" 
Unless... unless you're one of those people who loves winter sports or something. In which case, bring on the snow! 
and btw has anyone seen those adorable puppy pics going around with snowflakes on their noses? 
. And don't even get me started on the snow in the Midwest - that's just crazy talk 
. The National Weather Service is being super clear about it too, with multiple alerts issued for high-risk wind gusts and hail. I'm literally shaking my head thinking about how cold it's gonna be by Monday, 40s?! Brrr 
I MEAN, ONE DAY IT'S SUNNY AND WARM, THE NEXT IT'S SNOWING AND FREEZING LIKE CRAZY! 
. On a positive note, at least it'll be cold, not sweltering hot like we usually are in Houston 
. Snow in the northern Plains, though? That's just crazy talk 
. and ugh, 40s in december? brrr 
... Like, who wants to deal with snow in the middle of December? And then you gotta worry about hail and wind gusts too? It's like, can't we just have one nice day without any crazy weather? 
On the other hand, I guess it's good that they're being prepared for the worst... Stay tuned to your local news and all that jazz 
. But honestly, who needs a holiday weekend when you've got snow and chaos in the mix? 
severe weather is no joke and i'm so hyped for all the tech gadgets that are gonna be perfect for staying safe at home 
from portable power banks to smart speakers with weather updates, we gotta stay connected and informed. 
️ 40s temps are no joke 
need some source on this one...
. On the bright side, if you're into that sorta thing, it looks like there'll be some epic snow scenes up north 
. I'm definitely stocking up on hot cocoa and cozying up with a good book this weekend 
. With temperatures plummeting to the 40s by Monday, it'll feel like winter has arrived early 
But at the same time, I get why they're warning people - safety first, right? It's also weird that there's a chance of snow up north while we're dealing with rain and hail down here... just great, more chaos to deal with on top of the holiday weekend stress 
. Guess everyone should be staying glued to their news and weather apps this weekend 
.
