An upper-low over northeast Mexico has been responsible for cloud cover today across much of Texas and rain in South/Central Texas. This will continue to track along southeast Texas overnight. In the wake of this system, a strong cold front will be pushing down the Plains arriving in North Texas tomorrow evening. Temperatures out ahead of the front will be able to climb into the 60s for highs tomorrow. After the front arrives, gusty northerly winds of 20 to 30 mph will usher in much colder temperatures with the mercury rapidly falling into the 30s. Highs on Thursday will struggle to reach the low 40s. There may be some drizzle just behind the front, but moisture looks very limited. Thus, don’t expect much, if anything.

After that, a rapid warm-up is in store for North Texas with a beautiful weekend to boot! Upper-ridging will dominate the weather pattern with H85 temps progged to get as high as 16°C by Saturday. This will push surface temps to near 80°F across the area, especially west of the Metroplex. Another cool front arrives on Sunday with somewhat cooler air expected the first of next week. The weekend should be sunny and dry, so get out and enjoy!
