Dallas, TX – A strong Arctic cold front is set to arrive in North Texas by midweek, bringing dangerously low temperatures and bitter wind chills to the region.
According to the National Weather Service in Fort Worth, the front will push temperatures into the teens and lower 20s by Tuesday night, with wind chills dropping into the single digits and possibly below zero. The forecast remains uncertain regarding potential winter precipitation, but meteorologists advise residents to stay updated as more information becomes available.
Officials urge Texans to prepare by protecting the “4 Ps”—people, pets, plants, and pipes. Freezing conditions could create hazardous travel and increase the risk of burst pipes. Residents should take precautions such as insulating exposed pipes, ensuring pets have warm shelter, and limiting outdoor exposure.
The Arctic air mass is expected to last through at least Wednesday night. With the potential for dangerous wind chills, the NWS advises checking forecasts frequently for updates on any developing winter weather threats.
