Good Wednesday morning, North Texas.
After a very active night of severe weather across North Texas, our weather pattern remains unsettled as we head through the day today.
A windy cold front will continue pushing across the region, bringing gusty north winds behind it. Winds will increase through the afternoon with gusts that could exceed 40 mph at times. Because of this, a Wind Advisory is in effect for much of North Texas until 10 PM. Secure any loose outdoor items and use caution if you’ll be driving, especially in high-profile vehicles.
Rain and storm chances will linger into the afternoon, mainly southeast of the Dallas–Fort Worth Metroplex. While the overall severe threat is limited, a few stronger storms cannot be ruled out. The primary hazards would be quarter-size hail and wind gusts up to 60 mph. Most of the activity should gradually move out of the area and weaken by early evening.
Behind the front, noticeably cooler air settles into North Texas tonight. Overnight temperatures will drop into the 30s and 40s by Thursday morning, making for a much colder start to the day compared to what we’ve experienced recently. You’ll likely want to grab the winter coat on the way out the door Thursday morning.
The cooler weather will be brief. Temperatures rebound quickly heading toward the weekend, with highs climbing back toward 80 degrees by Saturday.
Another cold front is expected to arrive late Sunday, bringing another round of cooler air for Monday. At this time, the extended forecast looks quiet and dry across North Texas for the next 7 to 10 days, offering a welcome break after the recent stretch of active weather. -William
