Dallas residents might be in for a series of damp days, as the National Weather Service Fort Worth TX forecasts a chance of sporadic showers and thunderstorms starting today and stretching into early next week, with a heightened potential for heavy rainfall and possible flooding specifically targeting areas north of I-20 up to the Texoma region from Saturday through Monday, this cautionary note brought to light in their latest Weather Forecast and corroborated by their Hazardous Weather Outlook.
While the chance of showers and thunderstorms sits at 20 percent before 10 am today with mostly cloudy conditions giving way to some clearing and a comfortable high near 77 degrees, the evening is expected to settle into a mostly clear panorama bearing a low of approximately 59 degrees though with the lingering potential for gusts reaching up to 20 mph, these details according to the National Weather Service.
The outlook for Friday through Wednesday signals a marked change, entertaining a 30 percent chance of rain predominantly after the afternoon hours, the needle of probability inching progressively higher as we push through the weekend; by Monday, the chance of precipitation surges to an assertive 80 percent, a concoction of showers and possibly a thunderstorm buffeted by southern winds that could usher in gusts as potent as 35 mph, this rhythmic patter set to descend to a low around 59 degrees by Monday night.
It's worth mentioning the local denizens should keep their umbrellas at hand and raincoats buttoned up tight, especially north of I-20 into the Texoma region Saturday through Monday, where the watery siege is most likely to intensify leading to conditions ripe for flooding, while spotter activation isn't currently anticipated, vigilance during these spells of nature's unrest remains a prudent approach, so says the National Weather Service in their projection of the slippery days ahead.
