A hot and stormy holiday weekend ahead for DFW<\/strong><\/p>\n As Memorial Day weekend<\/strong> approaches, residents across the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex<\/strong> are bracing for a classic Texas mix of heat, humidity, and storms<\/strong>. Here’s what to expect each day as the holiday unfolds, and how the weather could impact your plans<\/strong> from Saturday, May 24<\/strong>, through Monday, May 26, 2025<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Saturday<\/strong> will be the hottest day of the weekend<\/strong>, with afternoon highs around 93\u00b0F (34\u00b0C)<\/strong> and a heat index reaching 99\u00b0F (37\u00b0C)<\/strong>. Expect mostly sunny skies<\/strong> with some patchy cloud cover<\/strong>, especially in the morning hours<\/strong>. By afternoon, skies should clear, leaving oppressive heat and heavy humidity<\/strong> in place.<\/p>\n While the chance of rain is low\u2014just 10%<\/strong>, it\u2019s not entirely ruled out. FOX 4 meteorologists<\/strong> will continue tracking radar in case pop-up storms<\/strong> develop late in the day.<\/p>\n Sunday brings more heat<\/strong>, with temperatures again hitting 92\u00b0F (33\u00b0C)<\/strong> and a sticky heat index similar to Saturday<\/strong>. But the atmosphere begins to shift as storm chances rise by nightfall<\/strong>.<\/p>\n By Sunday evening<\/strong>, there’s a 20% chance of storms<\/strong>, which climbs significantly to 70% overnight<\/strong>. Severe storms are possible<\/strong>, particularly after sunset, so those planning evening events<\/strong> or overnight travel<\/strong> should stay alert<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Monday, Memorial Day<\/strong>, brings a notable drop in temperature<\/strong> with a high of just 81\u00b0F (27\u00b0C)<\/strong>\u2014a refreshing change, but accompanied by the highest likelihood of rain<\/strong> during the long weekend.<\/p>\n There’s currently a 70% chance of showers and storms<\/strong>, especially in the morning<\/strong>. A second round of rain<\/strong> may move through later in the day<\/strong>, potentially disrupting any afternoon or evening outdoor plans<\/strong>.<\/p>\n If you’re leaving Dallas-Fort Worth<\/strong> this weekend, most severe weather<\/strong> will likely stay in Southwest Texas<\/strong>, although storm activity could affect areas like Houston and Galveston on Friday night<\/strong>. Still, localized storms and delays<\/strong> remain a possibility, especially for return travel on Monday evening<\/strong>.<\/p>\n To stay updated with real-time radar<\/strong>, forecasts, and alerts for the Dallas-Fort Worth<\/strong> region, check the FOX 4 weather site<\/strong> or follow Chief Meteorologist Dan Henry<\/strong> on X<\/strong> at @FOX4Weather<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Expect heat, high humidity, and potentially hazardous conditions<\/strong>, especially by the time Monday rolls around<\/strong>.
