24 degrees. That was the high today. Uh, the record was set back in 2020. What a great year. That was 100 and six degrees was the record high then. Uh, right now it's 88 degrees at DFW with southeast winds at 15 miles an hour. Uh, it feels like 93. So the rain chances, you can actually just see them evaporating as we speak. There it is. See the rain that moved into Rockwall County, Hunt County and then kind of moved to the north and it just kind of fizzled out. So here's the thing, the rest of tonight, there could be a spotty shower or thunderstorm for the next few hours. But then the rest of the night's dry as rain chances dwindle. We'll have to increase the rain chances, uh, through the next several days. So tomorrow afternoon, late afternoon evening, uh, a very weak front will be noticeable, uh, in our western counties and it's not, it's slowing down, so it's not gonna race through here but watch at seven o'clock in the morning, you see the thunderstorms out in the panhandle of Texas diminishing rain chances though, as it tries to move into North Texas. There's the cold front at 3 p.m. Right. Not much happening in North Texas. At that time, we got about a 30 to 40% coverage of rain on Friday. That's it. This is not gonna be a wash out of day tomorrow. This is 7 p.m. There's the front from Wichita Falls to see more. It's gonna be kind of split better rain chances to the southeast of the metroplex, better rain chances to the northwest of the Dallas Fort Worth area. There's 11 pm, scattered rain. A couple thunderstorms, nothing severe. Now, let's get into Labor Day weekend. This is eight o'clock in the morning. The front still kind of dripping to the southeast in North Texas. Here's what to expect on Saturday morning, couple spotty showers, couple rumbles of thunder into the afternoon. The coverage will go up a little bit more. We're, we're looking at 40 to 50% coverage of rain as this front kind of sticks into the area. And as we kind of get the heating of the day, we'll bubble up a little bit of that rain. Then as we go into Saturday night, rain coverage will diminish back into Sunday. The same thing, eight o'clock, not a lot of rain watch into the afternoon. Get the idea right. There's 3 p.m. The scattered shower and storm chances go up for the middle of the afternoon into the evening. Then they go down as we go into Sunday night. Then the same thing happens for Labor Day. On Monday, there's eight o'clock get into the afternoon. The rain chances bubble up the bottom line for all of this is scattered showers and storms are in the forecast through Labor Day, even a couple of days after that. But through Labor Day, no washouts, plenty of dry hours, no severe weather, afternoon and evening scattered thunderstorms will be at their highest coverage. This is what we're expecting. Uh The potential for half an inch to an inch of rain through Labor Day for the metroplex. Higher coverage of rain to the west where there could be one to maybe even an inch and a half of rain in parts of maybe Abilene to Albany and that's where it is needed the most. The latest drought monitor shows more widespread moderate drought into the area. Now, for most of the metroplex and then severe drought, that level of drought right there for Decatur areas west and even out toward Albany and Abilene. It has been pretty dry over the last couple of months tonight. 75 partly cloudy, warm, muggy and breezy tomorrow. 93 partly sunny scattered thunderstorms. 14 day forecast. The first seven look a little different than the second highs. It'll be in the upper eighties, lower nineties with chances of rain. It's not bad. I've heard September is a great month. Um and then, uh the 14 day 91 that following weekend, uh and, and you know, get the idea, at least the triple digits are done.
