DALLAS — Is it still summer around here? Or is it fall, like the calendar says?
Let's dive into that with a look at what's to come weather-wise these next few days.
Quick look ahead:
- Cool mornings, warm afternoons
- No significant rain in North Texas through the weekend
- Humidity stays low
This week
Well, you can expect 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 around here in the summer.
Afternoon temps will climb with 90s making a return heading into the weekend.
This will also keep mornings feeling cooler to comfy as well. Lows in the 50s and 60s are likely.
Any rain chances?
Unfortunately, there aren't any rain chances headed our way any time soon.
In fact, most of Texas (and the country for that matter) will stay dry through next weekend.
Florida will get quite the soaking from Hurricane Milton.
But we need the rain!
The latest drought monitor in North Texas shows we're in a fairly widespread moderate to severe drought. All was going so well until the summer! And it's only gotten worse since June. The good news? On average, North Texas sees 4.37 inches of rain in October, making it one of the wettest months of the year. The bad news? The first half of the month looks like it'll be dry.
14-day forecast
A stronger more fall-like front may move in next week, but right now rain prospects with that front look low. At the moment, it just looks to make afternoons not as warm and mornings cooler.
