Quick facts

Excessive Heat Warning
An Excessive Heat Warning continues for all of North Texas. High temps will be well above 100° for the foreseeable future with higher heat index values as well.
Remember to stay cool and hydrated if outdoors and stay safe!
Another record high is possible on Monday before temps do dip by a few degrees after that so record highs are likely safe Tuesday and Wednesday. However, temps climb again late week with the potential for more record heat.
Fire Danger
Fire danger increases a bit on Monday. Most of North Texas will be under "High" fire danger, so a Red Flag Warning has been issued for most of the area. Simply, this just means fire danger is high.
All of these locations are under burn bans, so please respect those burn bans. Also use extreme caution with anything that causes sparks or open flames.
