NORTH TEXAS — We added another 100+ day to the count.
DFW hit 101 Thursday afternoon bringing us to 22 days so far this year and more are on the way.
The Weather Alert has been extended into Friday as we will likely see the Excessive Heat Warning expanded for most of North Texas including DFW.
An Excessive Heat Warning is in effect for most of North Texas including DFW until 9 p.m. Friday.
Feels like temperatures of 112 are possible with air temperatures of 108.
The rest of North Texas is under a Heat Advisory until 9 p.m. Friday for feels like temperatures of 108.
It is a scorcher of a day with feels like temperatures currently 105+ throughout the area at 5 p.m.
Get ready for a repeat on Friday with it feeling a few degrees hotter as high pressure shifts more directly overhead.
Our hope for slightly cooler temperatures and a few showers arrives Tuesday into Wednesday as an area of low pressure moves into South Texas.
The best rain chances will remain to our south, but scattered showers may make it into the area midweek.
The increase in cloud cover keeps highs in the mid/upper 90s closer to average.
