One more day today with below average temperatures and then readings will warm into the eighties this weekend and into early next week. Unfortunately, the grass fire danger returns today through the weekend as well, mainly west of I-35W.

By Monday and Tuesday, humidity levels will start to rise ahead of our next weather maker. This system is due to arrive late Tuesday into the 1st half of Wednesday. Unfortunately, there is a threat for strong to severe thunderstorms again. As we get closer to our next event, I will spell out the timeline, the severe threats, and rainfall amounts to be expected.

In the meantime, enjoy the warmer temperatures, but please be mindful of the elevated fire danger west of Fort Worth through the weekend and into early next week.
