Dallas wakes up to clear skies today before temperatures climb toward 98 degrees, kicking off a long stretch of hot, rain-free weather. The morning will be relatively comfortable by North Texas standards, but the heat will build quickly through the afternoon.
Sunday Starts Dry And Sunny
Temperatures will rise from the mid-70s early today to the upper 90s by late afternoon. North winds around 5 to 10 mph will help keep humidity lower than it has been recently, with the heat index expected to stay near the actual temperature.
Rain is not expected today, and skies will remain clear tonight as temperatures fall to around 74 degrees. The National Weather Service forecast indicates no current watches or warnings for the Dallas area.
Tuesday Looks Like The Week’s Hottest Day
The heat intensifies tomorrow, when Dallas could reach 101 degrees, then peaks on Tuesday near 103. Overnight relief will be limited, with lows rising from the upper 70s tomorrow night to around 81 degrees Tuesday night.
Sunny conditions and highs near 100 degrees are expected Wednesday through Saturday, while rain chances remain close to zero for most of the workweek. Forecasters say a small chance of rain may return late next week, but the immediate outlook is dominated by heat and dry weather.
Plan Around The Afternoon Heat
Outdoor plans will be most manageable early in the day, before temperatures surge into the 90s and triple digits. Drink water regularly, take breaks in air conditioning or shade, and avoid leaving children or pets in parked vehicles during the hottest part of the day.
