A strong cold front will blow through the area before you wake up on Friday. There is a chance for a few scattered showers and storms along the front. The greatest coverage will be in east Texas for the first half of the day. You'll wake up to temperatures near freezing on Friday morning with wind chills in the teens. We'll struggle to get above 45° by afternoon, with a north wind gusting to 45 mph.
Saturday looks decent with plenty of sunshine. Afternoon highs will reach the low to mid 50s. Typical for mid January.

By late Saturday night into noon Sunday, an Arctic blast will plow through the area. The high temperature on Sunday will be during the morning hours. Some areas may jump up to 50° but it's doubtful. Northwest winds will gust to 40 miles per hour and temperatures will fall into the teens by Sunday evening. Wind chills will be near zero.
To make matters worse, an upper-level disturbance will be crossing the area late Sunday into Monday bringing a slight chance of a wintry mix across the area. The best chances will be east of the Dallas-Fort Worth area and anything that falls will stick. We will have a few days to monitor the data as we get closer to Sunday.
National Weather Serrvice - Fort Worth
Near record-breaking low temperatures in the morning hours on Monday and Tuesday as readings fall into the teens. There could even be some single digits in the forecast north of DFW. Afternoon highs on Monday will only warm into the low to mid-20s. Upper 20s on Tuesday. We'll finally get above freezing by Wednesday.
Please keep in mind this wintery mix is not in stone. The storm system hasn't come ashore in the Pacific Northwest yet. Data may change as we work our way through the next 72 to 84 hours so stay tuned.
