Will it snow in Texas this weekend? 6 maps show how cold it’ll get

Texans may not have to wait long for their next snowfall. Just a week after a polar vortex brought snow and freezing temperatures to the state, another cold snap is approaching, just in time for the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday weekend.

This weekend’s cold front is expected to bring even colder conditions, with some areas preparing for single-digit lows and temperatures in the low teens — the coldest temperatures of the winter so far.

Although earlier forecasts indicated minimal chances of snow, the likelihood of a snow event is increasing as the days progress.
