Memorial Day weekend begins hot and humid in Dallas-Fort Worth<\/strong><\/p>\n The Dallas-Fort Worth<\/strong> area is heading into Memorial Day weekend<\/strong> under the grip of intense heat and humidity<\/strong>, with the potential for strong thunderstorms<\/strong> by Monday<\/strong>. For those planning to fire up the grill or head out on the road, it\u2019s going to be a weekend of rising storm chances<\/strong> and cooler holiday conditions<\/strong>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Saturday: Summer heat kicks off the weekend<\/strong><\/p>\n Saturday<\/strong> will feel like a true Texas summer day<\/strong>. Highs will reach around 93\u00b0F (34\u00b0C)<\/strong>, but the heat index<\/strong> will push closer to 99\u00b0F (37\u00b0C)<\/strong>. Skies across Dallas-Fort Worth<\/strong> will stay mostly sunny<\/strong>, though scattered clouds<\/strong> may dot the sky during the morning hours. By the afternoon, expect clearer skies<\/strong> and continued oppressive humidity<\/strong>. There is a slight 10% chance of isolated storms<\/strong>, though any development is expected to be localized and brief<\/strong>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Sunday: Storm chances grow by nightfall<\/strong><\/p>\n The heat continues Sunday<\/strong>, with a high of 92\u00b0F (33\u00b0C)<\/strong> and humidity levels keeping things muggy. Most of the daylight hours should remain dry<\/strong>, but storm chances<\/strong> begin to increase Sunday evening<\/strong>, starting at 20%<\/strong> and building up to 70% overnight<\/strong>. There\u2019s concern for severe weather<\/strong> late Sunday, particularly in northern and central Texas<\/strong>, so DFW residents<\/strong> should stay alert during the evening and overnight hours.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Memorial Day: Cooler but stormy<\/strong><\/p>\n Monday<\/strong> brings a sharp shift in the forecast<\/strong>. With a projected high of just 81\u00b0F (27\u00b0C)<\/strong>, Memorial Day<\/strong> will be the coolest<\/strong> day of the weekend \u2014 but also the wettest<\/strong>. Expect morning rain and storms<\/strong>, with a 70% chance of precipitation<\/strong>. A second round of showers and thunderstorms<\/strong> is possible later in the evening<\/strong>, potentially disrupting any late barbecues or outdoor events.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Travel weather: Watch the skies in southwest Texas<\/strong><\/p>\n For travelers heading outside the DFW Metroplex<\/strong>, severe storms<\/strong> on Friday night<\/strong> and into the weekend are expected to remain concentrated in southwest Texas<\/strong>, with additional storm cells<\/strong> near the Houston<\/strong> and Galveston<\/strong> areas. Interstate travel<\/strong> on Sunday night or Monday<\/strong> could be affected by thunderstorms<\/strong> in central portions of the state.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Stay updated with local weather alerts<\/strong><\/p>\n To stay informed through the holiday weekend, follow Chief Meteorologist Dan Henry<\/strong> on X (@FOX4Weather<\/strong>) and monitor localized radar<\/strong> through the FOX 4 weather website<\/strong>. With the possibility of severe weather<\/strong> moving in by Sunday night<\/strong>, keeping up with forecast updates<\/strong> is key for making informed plans.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Memorial Day weekend begins hot and humid in Dallas-Fort Worth The Dallas-Fort Worth area is heading into Memorial Day weekend under the grip of intense heat and humidity, with the potential for strong thunderstorms by Monday.
