A chilly start to the week in North Texas includes a freeze watch for Halloween

Thanks to a strong cold front, unseasonable chilly weather will dominate our weather pattern. Rain will exit the region by late Monday morning, with clouds breaking for sunshine by Monday afternoon. Despite some sunshine returning, temperatures will remain cold on Monday, with highs only climbing into the upper-40s.

A Freeze Watch has been issued for Montague, Cooke, Grayson, Fannin, Lamar, Young, Jack, Wise, Denton, Collin, Hunt, Delta, Hopkins, Stephens, Palo Pinto, Parker, Eastland, Erath, Hood, Somervell and Comanche counties from 1 a.m. until 10 a.m. Tuesday. This will be the first freeze on the season for many locations across North Texas. Our average first freeze for DFW is November 22nd.

As our wind changes to a southerly direction by Thursday, a warmup will commence across North Texas. High temperatures by the weekend will hover into the mid-70s.
