Storm chances, hot and humid weather await North Texas this weekend
Friday morning started off warm and muggy with temperatures in the upper 70s. Ample sunshine and breezy southerly winds will boost highs into the low 90s, with feels-like temperatures near 100.
The heat and humidity stick around this weekend with afternoon heat indices from 100 to 105 both Saturday and Sunday.
First Alert Weather Days are in effect for Saturday and Sunday due to the threat of strong to severe storms at night. Monday is also a First Alert Weather Day, as heavy rain and storms will linger for the start of the week.
The storms on Saturday night will be more isolated and focused mainly in the northeastern part of North Texas. Hail and damaging winds are the main threats.
On Sunday night, the coverage of storms will increases and most of North of Texas will be impacted. Storms will likely be strongest when they arrive from the northwest, with large hail and damaging winds the main threats.
The storms will track east across all North Texas heading into early Monday morning.
A stalled weather system in North Texas will keep rain, flood and storm chances through the middle of next week. However, temperatures will be cooler due to clouds, rain and northerly winds.
