Sunny Heat Set to Hit North Texas This Weekend

North Texas is warming up fast. Early in the week, temperatures stayed cool, but now a strong high‑pressure system is pushing heat. By Thursday afternoon, the sky will clear and temperatures could reach the upper 80s or low 90s. Friday may hit a record high, matching the highest temperature ever logged in the area. Saturday will stay very hot, just a bit below that record. On Sunday, heat will climb even higher and could break the current record of 93 degrees.A cold front arrives Monday, which will lower the heat to the low 80s. Even then, it remains about ten degrees above normal for this time of year. The warm spell will return by Wednesday, with highs in the 90s expected again. Rain is not on the radar for the next week, so the heat will stay dry. Residents should prepare by staying hydrated and limiting outdoor activity during peak sun hours.
