You have a good chance of waking up Thursday morning wondering if you’ve accidentally slept through the rest of October and most of November.
Temperatures early Thursday will feel more like what we experience around Thanksgiving than two weeks before Halloween.
The chilly start to the day could trigger that dreaded tire pressure light in your vehicle.
What will our wide temperature swings this week mean for your ride, particularly your tire pressure?
Chances are Thursday that at least a few of you will go out to start your car and notice your tire pressure light coming on.
As annoying as this can be, science explains why the chilly temperatures could cause you to lose tire pressure.
Early this week, when it was hot, the heat gave air molecules more kinetic energy, which makes them want to take up more space. As the temperatures rose, the air molecules in your vehicle tires were dancing around, plumping your tires with pressure.
With Wednesday’s cold front and lower air temperatures since then, those air molecules have lost kinetic energy and stopped moving as much. As the air molecules take up less space in your tires, they produce less pressure. That’s why you might have to get more air for your tires before heading out.
Texas is trying as hard as it can to squeeze in every season this week.
Most of the region will wake up to temperatures between 45 and 48 degrees, though places like Conroe and Brenham may wake up to temperatures closer to 40 degrees.
If you have a backyard thermometer in these locations, don’t be surprised if it doesn’t briefly drop as low as 38 or 39 degrees.
If you read that and began worrying about your tender vegetation, this will not be the kind of cold snap that requires covering plants.
