Fort Worth, TX – Texans planning for Thanksgiving travel should prepare for a shift in temperatures, as a strong cold front moves in Wednesday night, bringing cooler weather and high winds. Expect mild and sunny conditions through midweek before temperatures drop sharply just in time for Thanksgiving.
According to the National Weather Service, Tuesday will see highs near 63°F with sunny skies and calm winds, providing excellent travel conditions across the Fort Worth area. However, Wednesday will bring warmer highs around 81°F before winds shift as the cold front arrives. Gusts up to 25 mph are expected Wednesday evening, making it essential for drivers to secure belongings and remain cautious during travel, especially along I-35 and other busy corridors.
Thanksgiving Day will feature much cooler weather, with highs reaching only 56°F and lows dropping to a brisk 34°F overnight. North winds at 10 to 15 mph will create an added chill for outdoor festivities. Travelers and residents should pack layers and prepare for dry but noticeably colder conditions.
Looking ahead, Friday and Saturday will remain sunny but cool, with highs in the mid-50s and nighttime lows in the 30s. For those planning Black Friday shopping or weekend outings, this extended cool spell may require additional preparation, particularly for outdoor plans.
Residents are encouraged to monitor updates through official weather channels, as conditions may shift closer to the holiday. Travel early to avoid delays caused by high winds or slick roads from overnight frost in northern parts of the state.
