Frigid air is blowing in from northern Canada, and according to National Weather Service Meteorologist Kurt Van Speybroeck, it’s expected to reach the very southern tip of Texas by Sunday morning.
Central Texans should expect sleet and freezing rain, but Speybroeck said chances of heavy accumulations are lower compared to North Texas.
“We’re expecting sleet and freezing rain in the Hill Country, maybe into the Austin-San Antonio corridor, but we’re not expecting significant winter precipitation,” Speybroeck said.
Temperatures in Central Texas are expected to drop as low as 16 degrees on Saturday night.
