Warm Weather Stays in North Texas This Week

As October begins, many people in North Texas are hoping for a cooler breeze. Unfortunately, it seems like summer is refusing to let go just yet. The past weekend marked a gradual increase in temperatures, and this week is expected to be just as warm. With no rain in the forecast until at least Sunday, the dry heat is expected to continue. The reason behind this unseasonable warmth is a mid and upper ridge that's dominating the weather patterns. As a result, temperatures will remain above normal for the rest of the week. Daytime highs are expected to reach the high 80s to lower 90s, while nighttime lows will stick around the mid to high 60s.

The good news is that the weather will be sunny and dry, with gentle north winds of up to 10 to 15 mph in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. However, it's worth noting that these temperatures aren't breaking any local records. The minimum temperature at DFW Airport only dropped to 79 degrees on September 19, tying the highest minimum temperature set in 1954. Looking ahead to the rest of the week, the forecast is calling for: * Wednesday: Sunny and warm, with a low of 65 and a high of 89. * Thursday: Sunny and very warm, with a low of 66 and a high of 91. * Friday: Sunny and very warm, with a low of 67 and a high of 91. * Saturday: Mostly sunny and warm, with a low of 66 and a high of 89. * Sunday: Mostly sunny and warm, with a low of 66 and a high of 89.
