After striking the East Coast this weekend, a winter storm is expected to roll across Texas in the first half of next week, per the National Weather Service.
Overnight temperatures are expected to drop below freezing Sunday night through Wednesday. Additionally, there is the potential for winter precipitation between Wednesday and Friday, but that depends on how quickly the weather moves across the state of Texas.
