  10. It's a frosty start to the day for much of a southeast Texas with a hard freeze north and east of Houston. Clouds blowing in from the southwest will lock in cool temperatures this afternoon, keeping highs in the 50s. Temperatures will not drop much overnight as clouds, moisture, and a warm front blow in from the Gulf. This will lead to significantly warmer weather Friday and Saturday with light rain occasionally falling from the clouds. By Saturday, dense sea fog is possible along the coast. Our next cold front blows in Super Bowl Sunday. Timing of the front is still uncertain, but temps are likely to fall into the 40s during the afternoon.
