Texas – Sunlight cuts through a crisp blue sky this afternoon as mild air spreads across North Texas, hinting at a steady warm-up for Dallas heading into the Jan 17–18 weekend. Pavement feels dry and clean, and commuters should enjoy smooth travel as high pressure holds firm over the region.
According to the National Weather Service, Dallas climbs into the upper 50s today, with south winds near 10 mph. Clear skies keep visibility high across I-35E, Highway 67, and Loop 12. Conditions stay calm through tonight, with lows settling in the mid-40s before warmer air returns Friday.
Friday brings bright, dry weather and a high near 61°F. Light southeasterly breezes shift north by afternoon, but gusts should remain manageable for drivers. To be fair, the bigger national weather story remains the winter blast gripping the Midwest and Northeast, yet Dallas stays shielded under a mild dome.
Saturday cools slightly as a northwest wind develops, though sunshine persists. Highs hover near the upper 40s, and the air turns noticeably drier. Sunday rebounds quickly with a return to near-60 warmth and light north winds. Families heading to parks, errands, or MLK Day events should expect comfortable skies and steady sun.
Meteorologists now track a subtle pattern shift next week as colder air nudges southward across the central U.S. Dallas may feel that drop by Tuesday, though no precipitation is expected. Plan flexible layers and keep an eye on updated guidance as the broader pattern evolves.
