Here are your weather stories over the next seven days… A chance for isolated severe storms late this evening through early tomorrow morning, much cooler Wednesday through Friday, a chance of rain late Thursday through Saturday morning, with the heaviest south and east of DFW, and a nice Easter Sunday ahead with warming temperatures.
You won't need your jacket until this time tomorrow morning, as temperatures are well above average for this time of the year. This morning, temperatures are in the low 70s!
The sun will show its face today with high temperatures in the mid 80s! South winds will gust to 30 mph.
This evening, I'll be watching the progression of the dryline that'll be surging in from West Texas. This may spark 1 or 2 isolated supercells across the western half of North Texas. It depends on how strong the cap is.
By late tonight, a strong cold front will plow through the area creating a line of showers and storms. As of now, it looks like this line of storms will form along and east of a Sherman to Mid Cities to Hillsboro line and then intensify as it races into the Arklatex. There is a level 2 out of 5 in place for severe storms across much of north Texas this evening through early tomorrow morning.

You'll wake up tomorrow morning to temperatures in the mid 50s with a north wind gusting to 30 mph. This is when you'll need your jacket! Clouds will move out by afternoon with high temperatures only in the mid 60s.
Clouds will increase Thursday and there is a chance of showers, especially south and east of us late Thursday through Saturday morning. We may squeeze a quarter of an inch of rain out of this next system, but areas across southeast Texas will see upwards of 4 inches of rain. It will remain cool through the period with high temperatures in the low to mid 60s. The average high this time of the year is 74 degrees.
Clouds should move out by Saturday afternoon with high temperatures near 70゚. Easter Sunday looks fantastic with highs near 80゚. Monday will bring a partly cloudy sky with temperatures in the lower 80s.
Have an awesome day today and please enjoy the weather when you can, it's the only weather you've got!
