Warm & Breezy Through the Weekend

Today’s Forecast (Thursday): Expect another day of above-normal temperatures across North Texas, with highs climbing back into the 80s – a solid 5-10° warmer than seasonal averages for mid-November. South winds will pick up, becoming breezier through the afternoon and evening, gusting 15-25 mph in many areas. These winds will feel warm and humid, carrying moisture from the Gulf, but conditions remain dry with plenty of sunshine.

Friday & Weekend Outlook: The warm-up continues. South winds stay gusty into Friday and linger through the weekend, keeping us in a stable, high-pressure pattern. Highs hold steady in the upper 70s to low 80s each day, with lows in the comfortable 60s overnight. Skies stay mostly clear to partly cloudy—perfect for outdoor plans, early holiday shopping, or yard work.

Extended Outlook (Next Week): The pattern shifts by mid-next week (Tuesday-Wednesday), as a frontal boundary approaches from the northwest. This brings our next chance of rain and thunderstorms, with models showing 20-40% odds of scattered showers or storms. Amounts look light (under 0.5 inches), but keep an eye on updates as it nears. Highs cool slightly to the 70s behind any activity.
