Triple digit temperatures are back across north Texas through the rest of this week, with heat advisories in effect at least through tomorrow. Plus, record highs will be broken Thursday and Friday. This weekend will be slightly cooler with a few scattered showers and storms around, and by early next week, a significant pattern change may arrive with welcome rain and much cooler temperatures.
We're starting Tuesday with temperature readings near 80° under a fair sky. There's also a few scattered showers and storms well to the west of the Dallas-Fort Worth area. These will stay out there and not effect us today.
Heat Advisories are in effect today and tomorrow with afternoon highs close to 103°. There's also a very slight chance for a late day shower storm on Wednesday, especially north of DFW, as a weak cold front settles along the Red River.

Thursday and Friday will be the hottest days this week with possible Excessive Heat Warnings across the area. Thursday's high will be near 105°, Friday's High 107°. If we reach these numbers, which I think we will, new record highs will be set.
We'll be a little bit cooler this weekend with a slight chance for some late day showers and storms. Afternoon highs will only reach the upper 90s.
By early next week, I'm going to be keeping my eye on a possible cold front that may bring increasing rain chances to much of north Texas, as well as much cooler temperatures.
