Dallas is starting Saturday under gray skies, with temperatures around 72 degrees and showers or thunderstorms likely through the day. The rain should keep the afternoon relatively cool, with a high near 77 and northerly winds adding to the damp feel.
Rain Tapers After A Gray Saturday
Periods of light to moderate rain are expected Saturday, with a 70% chance of precipitation and north-northeast winds between 5 and 10 mph. Rainfall should generally stay below half an inch, and there are currently no watches or warnings in effect, according to the National Weather Service Fort Worth.
That is a calmer setup than Thursday's flood-watch conditions, when heavier rain and localized flooding were the main concerns, as previously reported by Hoodline. Saturday's rain is expected to be intermittent rather than a nonstop washout.
Sunday Clears The Deck
Saturday night brings only a slight chance of showers and a low near 68. A stray shower could linger before 7 a.m. Sunday, but the rest of the day should turn partly sunny with a high near 83 and wind gusts reaching 20 mph.
Sunny, Warmer Weather Takes Over Next Week
Monday through Friday look dry and increasingly warm, with sunny highs near 83 Monday and Tuesday, 85 Wednesday, 86 Thursday and 88 Friday. Overnight lows will dip into the lower and middle 60s, giving Dallas cooler mornings before the afternoon heat returns.
