NORTH TEXAS – It has been a beautiful start to 2025 with temperatures near average across North Texas. The trend will continue into the weekend. However, an Arctic front will cause temperatures to plummet on Sunday. Some of the coldest air of the season will settle across the region on Monday. Hence, a First Alert has been issued for both days.
