The National Weather Service continues to forecast freezing temperatures in Corpus Christi and Nueces County that will begin tonight into Friday morning and again Friday night into Saturday morning. Preparations should be made immediately for infrastructure and vegetation to mitigate damage from the anticipated duration of freezing temperatures. Freezing temperatures with wind chills can pose an increased risk for hypothermia for anyone without adequate shelter. Rain is anticipated tonight and the possibility for freezing rain or sleet exists after 9 p.m. this evening potentially creating hazardous road conditions. Dry conditions are expected Friday afternoon through the upcoming weekend, but temperatures will remain below normal. Several weather warnings and advisories are in effect today and will continue through Friday. Please protect people, property, and pets.

The City has gathered resources from various City departments and local partners to bring residents the best advice for staying safe during inclement weather events.
Measures will be in place to ensure proper and safe City services in public safety, transportation, water, homelessness, animal care, aviation services, and construction.
To protect motorists and pedestrians:
To minimize property damage:
The City is working with multiple local homeless agencies to ensure shelter, food, blankets and clothing is provided for those in need during the severe cold and inclement weather. The Salvation Army has been identified as the lead agency in providing emergency shelter. If the Salvation Army exhausts their intake accommodations, individuals will be referred by the Salvation Army to other shelters expanding their intake.
If you can donate cold weather items such as jackets, blankets, gloves and hats or monetary donations, please drop them off at the Salvation Army or other local homeless service providers.
