Warm Weather Returns to North Texas, but Fog Expected to Move In First
After experiencing some of the coldest temperatures of the season, warm weather is finally returning to North Texas. However, there’s a catch – fog is expected to move in first.
Cloudy Skies and Scattered Showers
On Sunday morning, clouds and scattered showers moved through the region from west to east, with clear skies expected for the afternoon, according to the National Weather Service’s Fort Worth office.
Fog Takes Over
As the precipitation clears out, fog is predicted to develop Sunday night and linger through Monday morning. The thickest coverage is forecast during 4-8 a.m. for the area east of I-35, making it likely to affect morning commutes. The weather service recommends using low-beam headlights and allowing extra time to reach destinations, as visibility may be under a mile.
Forecast for the Rest of the Week
Once the fog clears by late morning, full sun is expected to move into the region for the rest of the week with highs in the 70s. Thursday is the only day expected to slightly buck this trend, as a mild cold front will move through Wednesday night and drop temperatures back into the 60s before they rise again for the weekend.
