Leaves. The color bright color of Izzy's dress. Apple cider. Crisp, cool, dazed. That's autumn weather. You can open the doors, open the windows for a little bit for the first time and keep it coming literally months. Autumn and New English. Yeah. Uh, enjoy it for one more day and then it's gonna be back to reality, uh, the rest of the week and then, especially into the weekend as well. But enjoy tomorrow morning, check this out widespread fifties. Yet again. Tomorrow morning, we even had some locations this morning down in the forties. Our typical cool spots like Eastland Canton, Mineola, I believe made it down into the forties this morning. Denton was, I think it was all the way down to like 52 this morning. So it'll be a range of fifties to start the day tomorrow. But kind of our last cool and crisp morning before the temps will start going up and the humidity will return the rest of the week and in the weekend, speaking of that humidity, plenty of it down into the tropics, down into the Gulf of Mexico. That's where we have our next storm. It is tropical storm Francine at the moment, wind speeds of 65 miles an hour gusting to 75 miles an hour. It's gonna kinda start moving to the northeast here intensifying in a hurricane sometime tonight or tomorrow morning, potentially in a category two storm as it's south of Galveston. But landfall with this one likely in the Louisiana coastline is a category two storm, then of course, it'll make its way up through Louisiana and Mississippi weakening once it moves inland. But we have hurricane warnings for the uh Louisiana Gulf Coast, tropical storm warnings. Outside of that, the Galveston, the Houston area gonna get some uh, rain, definitely gonna get some, maybe a little bit of storm surge for the Galveston area. But definitely the worst of this storm will impact to the uh southern Louisiana coastline there. But even maybe the Beaumont Port Arthur area will see a decent amount of rain and wind and storm surge. But uh the metropolitan area of Houston at least gonna kind of dodge the bullet it looks like on this one in terms of the worst of the storm. But folks in Louisiana gonna get the full brunt of that storm surge, the wind and the rain as well. 6 to 8 inches along the Louisiana coast, 4 to 6 inches of rainfall inland. With this storm for us in North Texas, we might see a few tropical showers around during the day on Wednesday, isolated for the DFW area, scattered ferries east of DFW. Of course, more likely the farther you head into Louisiana and closer to that storm tonight, it's light winds and cool 60 will be year low with mainly clear skies. And then tomorrow warm dry light winds, the humidity will once again stay low tomorrow. So 88 tomorrow afternoon, a little warmer than what we were this afternoon. But with low humidity, it really won't feel bad at all. And it's an ozone action day. Then the humidity returns because you notice those morning lows, they go back up to around 70 the rest of the week and end of the weekend. And speaking of that weekend, look at that 9697. So, yeah, you thought fall was gonna, this fall, like weather was gonna last forever. Of course not. It's September. It's not gonna stay like this, uh, you know, for any extended amount of time. And, uh, then we're heading into the nineties for the second day or second week. Seven of that 14 day forecast there.
