San Antonio Freeze warning
Dec 9th, 2012 at 11:59am
 
SATX and Hill Country ppl....
supposed to be a freeze coming this week.  May want to go check on your rides to make sure they are protected.  Not sure if the temps will be enough to cause engine block damage, but draining the water in your motors ahead of the freeze never hurts.

COLD SURFACE RIDGE WILL CONTINUE BUILDING INTO THE REGION DURING THE DAY MONDAY WITH NORTH WINDS DECREASING DURING THE AFTERNOON. AS THE CENTER OF THE DRY SURFACE RIDGE SETTLES OVER THE AREA TOMORROW NIGHT... CLEAR SKIES AND DIMINISHING WINDS WILL CAUSE TEMPERATURES TO PLUNGE. BY TUESDAY MORNING... FREEZING TEMPERATURES WILL ENCOMPASS VIRTUALLY THE ENTIRE SOUTH CENTRAL TEXAS AREA... WITH READINGS FALLING TO NEAR 20 ACROSS THE HILL COUNTRY AND THE MID TO UPPER 20S ALONG THE I-35 CORRIDOR.

I crawled in mine this morning and drained everything.  No fun.  No fun at all.

Nope...no fun.  I had to go back to my storage unit later because I forgot to drain my sink/freshwater system Angry
