Thoughts: Still very cold... Houston, TX has been getting a lot of rain. The next big event looks to be from a very strong cold front that is going to bring some possible freezing temps to parts of Houston, TX. I wonder if this cold air mass will be enough to ice the roads on Friday and Saturday morning when the possible freezing temps will be. I also wonder if Houston, TX will see some winter precip with this next cold front.
