Texas – The air is cool and damp across Dallas this morning, with a gray lid of clouds hanging low over the skyline. After a chilly start near 39°F, warmer air begins to nudge in, signaling the start of a mild December weekend ahead.
According to the National Weather Service in Fort Worth, clouds will linger early today but gradually thin out by afternoon. Highs reach the mid-50s before dropping into the low 40s tonight under a calm breeze. By Saturday, sunshine returns in full force, pushing highs to around 61°F — perfect for outdoor errands, early holiday shopping, or a stroll through Klyde Warren Park.
Sunday marks the peak of this warming trend, with temperatures nearing 68°F and a light southwest wind adding to the comfort. However, morning lows will still dip into the low 30s across North Texas suburbs, which could mean some patchy frost for early risers.
This pattern of sun and warmth continues into early next week, with Monday and Tuesday climbing into the 70s under clear skies. No rain or severe weather is expected through at least midweek, giving residents a rare stretch of calm early-December weather before potential pattern shifts later in the month.
If you’re planning travel, this weekend brings ideal conditions across I-35, I-20, and U.S. 75, with no visibility issues or precipitation risks.
Cool mornings, bright afternoons — a quintessential Texas December weekend.
