DALLAS — Here's the latest forecast:
Quick Notes:
- Cool mornings, warm afternoons
- No significant rain in North Texas for the foreseeable future
- Humidity stays low
Rest of this week
Pleasant mornings followed by warm afternoons.
Temps will stay above normal, especially during the afternoon with highs in the upper 80s to low 90s. But all this comes with low humidity. So even though it will be warm, it will feel better outside than when we have that gross humidity. This will also keep mornings feeling cooler to comfy as well.
A cold front will push even drier air into the area early next week. Highs will drop to the mid-80s which is closer to normal for this time of the year. Even then, highs are trending warmer than normal for the first half of October.
Rain chances?
Not anytime soon!
In fact, most of Texas will stay dry through next week. Only rain looks to fall along the Texas Coast and maybe a few showers that make their way into southern Central Texas this weekend.
We need the rain
The latest drought monitor in North Texas shows fairly widespread moderate to severe drought. All was going well until the summer. It's only gotten worse since June. On average, October sees 4.37" of rain making it one of the wettest months of the year. The first half of the month looks dry.
14 day
No major pattern shifts in the next two weeks. A couple weak fronts are possible here or there but nothing that looks significant at this point.
