A cold front came through the region on December 14th. Afternoon humidity around 20 to 25 percent on December 15th with dew points in the low to mid 20s combined with the calm winds to allow temperatures to plummet after sunset; reading were in the mid to highs 30s at or before midnight. After midnight, temperatures dropped to or below freezing across large portions of Kenedy and Brooks counties. The Falfurrias COOP site in Brooks County reported a low of 26 degrees, while in Kenedy County, the Sarita COOP site reported a low of 28 degrees and the Armstrong COOP site reported a low of 29 degrees. Decent moisture still near the top of the soil, left behind from the rains of November and held in place by a cool second week of December, aided frost development.
