DFW Weather: It is the first week of fall and it FEELS like it!

A cold front early Monday brings cooler temps for the week along with rain chances.

DALLAS — Fall Equinox happened early Sunday and a cold front Monday morning helped it FEEL more like fall. 

Here's what to expect in North Texas as we transition to fall:

Quick Notes: 

  • A cold front and rain chances Monday morning
  • Near or below normal temps all of this week
  • Slim daily rain chances
  • Warming up again eventually 

Rainy Monday!

A cold front brought some relief on Monday. The heat dome shifted east, allowing for cooler air to settle in as scattered showers and storms moved in Monday morning. Rain will gradually thin out through the early afternoon. Some sunshine may even peek through in the afternoon hours. The cold front will bring light northeast winds and high temperatures will likely be in the low 80s and upper 70s!

More rain! 


For some. 

The front will eventually stall to the southeast as another disturbance moves in. This keeps scattered rain in the area through Wednesday. The next best chance for rain will be Tuesday night into Wednesday morning. Rain coverage will be highest before sunrise Wednesday before it clears out through the morning. Slim rain chances follow on Thursday. A tropical system is set to develop this week. While no local impacts are expected for Texas, some wrap-around moisture could be enough to bring scattered rain to North Texas on Friday. Generally, rain totals will be under half of an inch through Saturday.
