Freezing by Sunday" is the
startling forecast by the United
States weather bureau at New Or
leans today, but whether the predic
ton will hold good for the Lower
Rio Grande remains TO be seen.
A low barometric pressure over
the Lower Rio Grande Valley today
caused high southeast winds all dur
ing the forenoon, winds that at 12:-
80 today had reached velocity of
about thirty miles an hour. according
TO the wind gauge at the local wealth
er station.
Today's weather forecast predicts
generally fair weather for tonight
and Saturday, except that there will
probably be thunder showers this
afternoon or tonight, the latter sec
tion of the prediction not being
borne out by the condition of the
sky during the early part of the af-
terioon. The forecast said that the
weather will be much colder, with a
cold wave and freezing by Sunday
morning.
The high winds the past two days
have given telephone. telegraph and
electric lines in the Lower Rio Gran
de Valley a great deal of trouble,
many reports being received Of wires
broken by the winds. Many tele-
phones were put out Of commission
in Brownsville today by broken and
crossed lines.
