CORPUS CHRISTI - An upper level low pressure system continues to eject towards the northeast and is bringing a fair amount of moisture into Texas along with keeping temperatures well below normal. The system, well to our north, is bringing some heavy snowfall to areas of West and North Central Texas this morning while the Hill Country region has experienced some light snow/sleet mixture.

Today, as the system continues to push east, light to moderate showers will begin to unfold for us here in South Texas with overcast conditions being the dominant factor. Temperatures will struggle to get out of the lower 50s. Winds will be out of the north-northeast around 10-20mph.

Tonight, expect another cold night as temperatures drop into the mid to lower 40s with a north wind at 10-15 mph with overcast skies and light showers.

Rainfall will gradually come to an end late Saturday evening with some sunshine finally in the forecast on Sunday as the disturbance moves out of the area. Another chance of rain comes into the forecast for the middle of next week as another front pushes into our region with temperatures gradually getting back to near-seasonal levels.

Have a great weekend!
