NWS cautions of hard freeze coming this weekend
National Weather Service said there is a hard freeze coming this weekend, which could begin Saturday but has an even higher likelihood of occurring Sunday. Pictured is a photo from a past freeze at Texas State University. Daily Record photo by Megan Myles.

Temperatures are likely to drop again on Saturday due to an Arctic front moving through the area, according to Eric Platt, National Weather Service Austin/San Antonio meteorologist. The morning hours on Saturday appear to be fairly mild, but the temperatures are likely to drop as the day goes on, converse to the normal weather pattern.

“By early afternoon, the cold front is going to move through San Marcos, so the temperature will probably be falling,” Platt said. “Look for maybe falling temperatures in the afternoon late Saturday, and then it stays cold through to Sunday and well into the early portion of next week.”

Platt said he is confident that cold air is coming, but as of right now, has “low confidence as to whether or not we'll get any kind of wintry precipitation.”
