Weather Forecast

Weather Forecast Details

General Discussion:
A weak cold front will gradually progress south throughout the day Thursday, but expect temperatures to still remain above normal, with highs in the 70s, 80s, and perhaps even a few 90s. Fire danger concerns will remain elevated, primarily across parts of South Central and Far West Texas.

Temperatures will attempt to come down slightly for Friday, but will still remain warm with highs in the 80s expected. This trend will continue through the upcoming weekend before a bit of uncertainty returns to the forecast by Monday. Model guidance differs regarding how far south a second cold front will move into the ERCOT Region, which will ultimately determine how temperatures shape up early next week. Expectations are for a warmer solution for now with highs in the 70s and 80s, but this may need to be adjusted cooler across North Texas in particular depending on how guidance trends over the next day or so.

While the forecast still points toward the vast majority of the state staying dry through the upcoming weekend, confidence is increasing in a pattern change by the middle of next week. A pair of upper-level disturbances may produce daily rain and thunderstorm chances across at least parts of Texas, with additional rounds of rain possibly lingering into the following weekend.

Today:
Sunny to mostly sunny skies. More cloud cover across East Texas. Highs in the 70s, 80s, and 90s. Elevated fire danger concerns continue across South Central and Far West Texas.

Tomorrow:
Sunny to mostly sunny skies. More cloud cover across Far South Texas. Lows in the 40s, 50s, and 60s followed by highs in the 80s.
