Texas – Warm predawn air drifts across the Metroplex as a soft, dusty glow forms above the western horizon. Streetlights shimmer against mild breezes, and early traffic hums along I-30 and I-35 under a sky that looks more like late September than mid-November. The week before Thanksgiving brings heavier travel, and early-week storm potential may influence flight schedules and road timing.

According to the National Weather Service, Dallas–Fort Worth begins with temperatures in the mid-60s and clear skies. South winds increase through late morning, gusting to 25 mph at times. Drivers on I-20 and the Chisholm Trail Parkway should expect light buffeting, especially for high-profile vehicles.

According to meteorologists, today stays sunny with highs surging into the upper 80s—well above seasonal norms. Saturday night stays mild near 62°F with light southerly winds. Sunday brings another hot, dry day with highs near 83°F before winds shift east-northeast after sunset.

According to forecasters, Monday holds warm and mostly sunny conditions near 87°F. The steady pattern masks subtle instability, an early sign of Tuesday’s storm chance. Models hint at scattered showers and thunderstorms developing after midnight Monday, then expanding through Tuesday morning. Some storms could produce heavy rainfall and sharp cloud-to-ground lightning that slows early commutes and complicates growing Thanksgiving travel across North Texas.

Wednesday brings a stronger storm signal with potential for localized downpours and brief flooding on low-lying roads. Temperatures cool slightly but remain above normal, maintaining a muggy feel across the Metroplex. Drier air may return late week, creating better travel windows for cross-state trips.
