NEW: a HARD FREEZE WARNING has been issued for northern parishes. FREEZE WARNING will be in effect for the rest of the area through 10am Monday.

The big question regarding the pipes is just how long we see temperatures at or below freezing—winds will play a factor here as well as they could keep readings up just a bit.
Slighter better chance of freezing temperatures for an extended period of time for areas north of the I-10 corridor.
So...TO BE SAFE:
You may want to protect exposed, outside pipes (particularly areas north of I-10)--warm ground temperatures will work in our favor.
WIND CHILLS in low-mid 20s tonight/tomorrow morning, so have the coats and jackets ready to go.
Despite full sunshine Monday, temperatures will only top out in the upper 40s/lower 50s.
We'll be heading for near-freezing once again Monday night/Tuesday morning.
Slightly milder, but still cool Tuesday afternoon as readings push the lower 60s.
Even milder into Wednesday (lower 70s) before another front arrives by Thursday.
Stay warm!
