Fort Worth, TX — A wave of cooler weather is on the way for North Texas as a strong cold front is forecast to move into the region by early next week. Today, residents can expect a pleasant and breezy day with highs around 76°F, followed by a mild evening with lows dropping to 47°F. As temperatures dip, the National Weather Service urges residents to prepare for rain and a more noticeable chill starting Sunday.
According to the National Weather Service, the current weather pattern will bring sunny and mild conditions through the weekend, with a gradual warm-up likely on Saturday, reaching into the low 80s in some areas. However, by Sunday, rain chances will increase as the cold front approaches, leading to a sharp drop in temperatures. Showers are expected on both Sunday and Monday, with the high on Monday only reaching around 72°F.
Throughout the week, temperatures are projected to continue their downward trend. By Tuesday, highs will settle in the upper 60s, and residents should anticipate below-normal temperatures from November 20 to 26. The cold front will bring overnight lows in the 40s across much of the region, with some areas potentially dropping into the 30s.
Drivers on I-35 and I-20 are encouraged to stay updated on the forecast and drive cautiously, as the expected rain on Sunday and Monday could create slick road conditions. With a 60% chance of precipitation early next week, Fort Worth residents are advised to keep umbrellas and warm jackets handy as the region transitions to cooler, more unsettled weather.
The latest forecast projects that North Texas will experience a noticeable cool down throughout the next 7 to 10 days, with a potential for freezing temperatures in rural areas from November 20 to 22. The Weather Service suggests staying tuned for updates as the cold front progresses, bringing a likely end to the unseasonably warm start to November.
