Extreme cold warning remains in effect for North Texas as temperatures stay below freezing, keeping roads hazardous

Highs on Monday reached just above freezing, ending a 54-hour run of below-freezing temperatures in the metroplex. 

Those temperatures will quickly drop Monday evening. Expect a quick re-freezing on the roads Monday night and overnight. Please drive with care if you must be on the roads in the morning.

Extreme cold warning in effect

There could be patchy freezing fog overnight. We are not expecting any icing. Lows Monday night are in the teens again, with wind chills around zero. The extreme cold warning continues until 9 a.m.  

Major melting will occur by afternoon thanks to highs around 40 degrees. Everything re-freezes again with lows dropping down to the low 20s. 

Freezing fog

Freezing Fog is expected to form again, this time with more moisture in the air. There could be a minor accumulation of thin ice, making bridges and overpasses icy. 

We'll spend a couple of mornings slowly getting rid of the ice before another shot of cold air arrives this weekend. There are no nights above freezing in the 7-day forecast.
