Here comes the Arctic Blast

Get ready for the first Arctic Blast of the season.

A strong cold front will move through Denton County on Monday bringing much colder temperatures, strong winds, rain, and even the possibility for light (non-accumulating) sleet.

Monday morning will start out balmy with temperatures in the 60’s, but expect the bottom to drop out shortly after the front moves through around noon with temps falling into the mid 30s and winds gusting up to 45 mph.

A Wind Advisory will be in effect from 10 a.m. Monday to 6 a.m. Tuesday.

Cold temperatures with lows in the mid 20s and strong winds will drop wind chills into the teens and single digits by sunrise Tuesday.

Winter-like temperatures are expected Tuesday and Tuesday night. High temperatures on Tuesday will be in the 40s but the wind chill will make it feel 5-10 degrees cooler. Morning lows Tuesday and Wednesday will plunge into the 20s.

Make sure you protect the 4 Ps: Pipes, Plants, Pets, and People, and shut off your sprinkler system to avoid creating icy patches on roads or sidewalks.
