A final round of freezing temperatures strikes Texas as the state struggles to recover from winter storms
CNN
Texans weathering harsh winter conditions will get some relief from the cold Saturday, although many in the state are still without basic utilities.
Saturday morning temperatures may be as low as 20 degrees for many inland locations, including Dallas and College Station, but the welcome return of onshore winds and full sunshine will warm the state into the 50's and 60's in the afternoon, CNN meteorologist Derek Van Dam said. Most of the state will stay above freezing after that initial thaw. A weak cold front is expected Sunday evening, but is expected to bring only minimal impacts.More Related News
