More enjoyable fall weather is coming our way in Dallas-Fort Worth. It will be a little warmer today with a high in the upper 70s. A moderate southeast wind will push warmer weather into North Texas for Friday.
High temperatures will be near 80 through the weekend with continued sunny and dry weather.
As the drought worsens, the threat of grass fires will be high as well. A small spark could get a grass fire going quickly.
Even warmer weather will return next week, when North Texas will see temperatures in the upper 80s and low 90s.
