Texas wakes up to mild air and quiet skies, a calm start that feels more like early spring than mid-winter. The breeze stays light this morning, and sunshine quickly pushes temperatures upward across North Texas.
According to the National Weather Service, Dallas–Fort Worth warms into the low 70s today under partly sunny skies. Winds remain gentle, keeping travel conditions smooth across I-35E, I-30, and Loop 12. It’s a good morning for errands, school drop-offs, and outdoor plans before changes arrive later this weekend.
Tonight turns cooler but still comfortable. Skies clear, and temperatures slide into the lower 40s by daybreak. Calm conditions limit fog concerns, and roads stay dry. Saturday continues the quiet pattern, with abundant sunshine and highs in the mid-50s. A light north breeze adds a crisp edge, especially in shaded areas.
The bigger shift arrives late Saturday night into Sunday. Clear skies allow temperatures to drop quickly, falling into the upper 30s by sunrise. Sunday stays bright but cooler, topping out near 60 before another chilly night settles in. By Sunday night, lows dip into the mid-30s across much of the Metroplex, cold enough for patchy frost in outlying suburbs.
Meteorologists are watching the broader national pattern closely. Strong winter systems impacting the Plains and Midwest will stay north, but cooler air filters south behind them. No rain or winter precipitation is expected locally, yet the temperature swings are enough to catch people off guard.
Plan layers if you’re out early or late this weekend. Pets, plants, and early-morning commuters should be ready for colder starts by Sunday night. With daylight slowly increasing later this month, winter still reminds North Texas it’s not finished.
