Hot and dry, that's our weather story for the next several days! Unfortunately, this ridge of high pressure in the upper levels of the atmosphere will dominate our weather for the next seven to nine days.
Afternoon highs today and tomorrow willl reach the low to mid 90s, with morning lows in the 70s.
There is a very slight chance of a late evening shower and storms west of DFW and then south of the area on Saturday, but chances are very slim.
We'll also have near record breaking heat starting Sunday into Monday and Tuesday with afternoon highs into the upper 90s. Morning lows will be in the low 70s. This very hot weather pattern for this time of the year will continue all the way through the end of next week.
Please remember to stay hydrated and take frequent breaks if you're going to be working outdoors.
Our next weather change is due to arrive in about nine days. Some of the extended model data has a cold front coming through the area, increasing our rain chances and cooling our temperatures down by next weekend.
