Three cold fronts over the next seven days, and each one gets stronger than the one before it! Plus, some of us across North Texas may finally see some much-needed rainfall before the end of the weekend and into early next week.
Good morning, everyone! Welcome to Wednesday, and happy Veterans Day! I hope your week is going well.
Temperatures this morning have dropped into the upper 50s to lower 60s once again under mostly clear skies. It's a beautiful morning, with just a little dew on your windshield as you head out the door.
All right, let's break down your forecast!
We have a new weather system moving into the far western United States that will eventually cruise across South Texas late Friday into Saturday. Another system will move into the Pacific Northwest, eventually diving southeast toward our area late this weekend and early next week. That second system will bring our third cold front, which looks to be stronger than the first two.
**Today, Veterans Day:** It's going to be very warm for this time of the year. I wouldn't be surprised if we reach 80 degrees this afternoon. It's hard to believe we're already in the middle of November!
**Thursday:** We'll be a little cooler behind a weak cold front moving through the area this evening. Look for afternoon highs in the middle 70s under plenty of sunshine.
**Friday:** Another nice day is on tap as our next cold front approaches during the early morning hours. Northerly winds will keep temperatures a little cooler, with highs around 72 degrees.
**Saturday:** A beautiful day across North Texas! We'll start off chilly, but afternoon temperatures will climb into the lower 70s under mostly sunny skies.
**Sunday:** Clouds will begin increasing ahead of our next weather system, which is expected to arrive sometime Sunday afternoon or evening. Rainfall amounts won't be particularly heavy, but totals between a quarter and a half inch aren't out of the question for some locations. Nothing severe is expected with this system.
The system should be well east of us by Monday morning, although clouds will likelyhang around for much of the day. Temperatures will be considerably cooler, with readings mainly in the 50s throughout the afternoon.
**Monday:** Get ready for another chilly start! Northeasterly winds will bring in cooler air, with morning temperatures dropping into the middle to upper 40s. We'll struggle to get out of the 50s throughout the day.
As far as another significant shot of cold air is concerned, don't expect anything too crazy just yet. It's still only November! We'll see what early December has in store for us. Things could get a little interesting!
I'm meteorologist Dan Brounoff. I hope everyone has a wonderful Wednesday, and please enjoy the beautiful weather whenever you can. It's the only weather you've got!
