Weak, but dry, high pressure building in behind a departing surface low over the western Gulf brought light north winds and rapidly falling evening temperatures on December 8th.  By early morning of the 9th, freezing temperatures covered large portions of the of the King Ranch and surrounding locations in eastern Brooks County.
Local pocket of freezing temperatures occurred elsewhere in the Deep South Texas brush country, but durations were too short (i.e., Zapata County airport near Medina only touched 32 or 31 degrees for about an hour) or coverage was interpolated to be a small portion of a county's total area.  Meteorologically, return southerly flow developed in these areas, including typically colder pockets.
In all these areas, the combination of freeze and frost continued to accelerate curing of fine and medium fuels (grasses and brush) which had grown thick during the generally wet first nine months of 2010.

Below normal rainfall continued during the month of October across much of West Tennessee. The lack of rainfall expanded severe (D2) drought conditions from extreme portions of Northwest Tennessee to much of West Tennessee while conditions intensified across Northwest Tennessee to extreme (D3). The biggest impact from the drought was on agriculture as many crops suffered due to the lack of rainfall. Many pastures were in poor condition forcing farmers to feed livestock with baled hay. Hydrological concerns continued to be an issue as many lake and river levels dropped to low levels. Reelfoot Lake was at one of the lowest levels in decades. Burning permits were required due to the drought and Tennessee State Parks banned backcountry campfires. A few wildfires occurred as a result of the dry conditions.
