DALLAS — Be sure to download the WFAA app to track the latest forecast and get alerts from our team.
Let's dive into that with a look at what's to come weather-wise as we head into a new month.
Quick look ahead:
- Cooler air and rain return just in time for Halloween
- Several rounds of rain through next week
- Cooler the next couple of weeks
Rain and storms chances continue
We are at the beginning of an active weather pattern with multiple rounds of rain through the early part of next week. For now, we'll focus on the rest of the workweek.
Thursday morning: A line or broken line of storms swept across North Texas quickly moving east with most of the area looking dry by noon. DFW broke the rain-less streak with 0.21" of rain on Halloween morning.
Thursday (Halloween): Sunshine, less humid and cooler! Overall a nice day.
Friday: It'll be cloudy and more humid. The day looks mainly dry, but areas of drizzle will be possible. Some late-day showers are possible in western and southern North Texas.
Halloween forecast:
Trick or treating will be more of a treat! North Texas will be in between systems making for a rain-free evening. Temps will be in the low 70s to upper 60s. Sunset is around 6:38.
More rain is on the way
Thursday morning's cold front will push south of North Texas, only to make a comeback as a warm front later, bringing a blanket of clouds and muggy conditions by the end of the week. Combined with an approaching disturbance, this setup promises multiple rounds of rain over the weekend, with periods of heavy rainfall and higher rain coverage than we saw Thursday morning.
Looking ahead, another front early next week will increase rain chances on Monday and Tuesday, with the potential for some strong storms in the mix.
Between now and next Tuesday, rainfall totals could reach between one and three inches.
