Below-average temperatures and above-average precipitation, those are our weather stories over the next 7 days!
It's a quiet morning across North Texas as temperatures have fallen into the 70s with a few clouds overhead. Nothing is showing up on radar and I don't expect any rain today and most of tomorrow. Afternoon highs today will reach the low 90s today Friday, mid-90s on Saturday.
Our pattern change starts to unfold on Sunday as winds turn northwesterly in the upper levels of the atmosphere. This is a very unsettled weather pattern which allows disturbances to roll in from the northwest . As these disturbances interact with daytime heating and another cold front into the area early next week, widespread shower and thunderstorm activity will break out. The first strong disturbance arrives on Sunday, the second disturbance arrives on Monday dragging the cold front with it. These are the rainiest two days expected in my 7-day forecast. With the clouds and rain around, temperatures will hover in the 80s through the period. 70s in the rain. It's still way too early to tell you where the heaviest rain bands will set up, but if you have outdoor plans over the next 4 days, you need to get things taken care of today and tomorrow.

Afternoon highs will approach 90°.
Again if you need to get things done outdoors over the coming days, I would take care of them today or tomorrow.
