Some school systems in the Corpus Christi area have said they will be closed on Tuesday because of the arctic front that is coming, while others have said they are watching the weather to see if they need to close.
As of Sunday, the National Weather Service in Corpus Christi warned of a winter storm for Monday night into Tuesday for all of South Texas except the border islands. It might rain and snow at the same time, and the roads might get slippery in some places.
The weather service says that Monday night will have a low of 29 degrees and a 90% chance of rain. There could be less than 0.1 inch of ice buildup.
It will be windy on Tuesday, with highs around 37 and lows around 22. Wind gusts could reach 21 mph.
