North Texas Weather Forecast
As rain chances become constant over the next few days, North Texans may be hoping for some cooler weather along with them.
On Thursday, it’s not likely. The high is forecast to reach 94 degrees, according to the National Weather Service’s Fort Worth office, similar to the mid-90s temperatures that Dallas-Fort Worth has been experiencing for the last week.
It’s a notable contrast from what’s coming to the Panhandle, where a cold front is expected to drop temperatures over 10 degrees in a single day, down to a high of 77 on Thursday. The weather service explained that while the front may approach the Texas-Oklahoma border along the Red River, it’s not expected to drift far enough south to reach North Texas.
Temperature Trends
It’s also not likely to be long-lived — temperatures are expected to bounce back up to the mid-80s by Friday in Amarillo. D-FW appears to, instead, be taking the slow and steady approach to cooling down. It should reach 88 degrees here by Monday, crawling through the low 90s over the weekend.
A 20% chance of thunderstorms will also be present Thursday afternoon.
