TEXAS, USA — Above average and spring-like temperatures are in the forecast this week into the weekend for a good chunk of Texas, including the Brazos Valley. Ridging and a southerly flow will control the weather, allowing temperatures to run a good 10 to 15-degrees above average. 80s are likely from mid to late week across the Brazos Valley.
With temperatures forecast to be so warm this week, many will have the urge to plant gardens, but this is not wise--just yet. The weather models are suggesting another cold snap next week. A cold front will move into Texas next weekend, which will bring colder temperatures. Temperatures will run about 10-degrees below average for a good chunk of Texas next week.
The Climate Prediction Center has highlighted the entire state of Texas to see below average temperatures next week.
It is uncertain just how cold the temperatures will get but there are some indications of a frost, and possibly a freeze, will occur for the Brazos Valley in just over a week.
Make sure you wait to plant the garden just a little bit longer!
