Lubbock airport reported a gust up to 33 mph. <\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">Overall, there was plenty of sunshine while temperatures depended on which side of the front you were on. North of Lubbock saw highs climb into the 60s while south saw 70s. <\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">The cold air will really settle in Saturday night, with lows dipping below the freezing marker in many locations. <\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"figure-img img-fluid mx-auto d-block\" alt=\"Lows tonight\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/JNC6QQNEYZCRDE4VVTHFBM3VVU.PNG\" width=\"980\" height=\"561\" \/>Lows tonight(KCBD)<\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">High pressure building to the north will deliver a shot of chilly air, setting up a cold and calm Sunday with highs only in the mid 50s to low 60s. <\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"figure-img img-fluid mx-auto d-block\" alt=\"Highs tomorrow\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/QWGF637HLBEKDJV7EFKXAPBGJU.PNG\" width=\"980\" height=\"551\" \/>Highs tomorrow(KCBD)<\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">By Sunday afternoon, you may want to think about covering any outdoor plants or exposed pipes because we may experience our first hard freeze of the season by Monday morning. <\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">Expect bone-chilling temperatures in the teens and 20s across most of the region. <\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">Beyond that, the start of the week will be mild and cool with plenty of sunshine.
