Now I just read something in,
you know, in the newspaper,
Cynthia, actually it was on my .
It talked about all this,
this oppressive heat next week, oppressive.
Here it is, 100, the normal hig.
Next week is 96100 on Wednesday,
101 on Thursday.
Now heat index.
That's nasty stuff.
You get up above one O 5 or mor.
I mean we have problems with th.
So I don't want you to take this too lightly,
but certainly some hot temps.
We hit 96 today.
And we're going to be, you know,
around there or a tad hotter thn
that as we head through next we.
But Sunday with some clouds and some rain
will only have a high temp of 93 degrees.
So, you know, I also talked about the dog
days of summer last night and I talked about,
you know, where that originated,
the ancient Romans as opposed
to the current Romans,
they came up with that,
the Star series and all that.
If you remember that from last night,
if you don't remember that,
shame on you for not watching
the TV last night.
But I have it on the Facebook
and on the Twitter.
You can you can check it out there, so.
So the dog days of summer,
you know, historically people
think of a July 3rd through,
I think it was August 13th.
But for us here, our hottest tie
of the year is when we hit 97.
That's our hottest normal,
high temperature,
it's 97 degrees and that
span lasts several weeks.
So it's a little over three wee.
It's July 23rd until August 14t.
Climatologically,
that's the hottest stretch of weather
that we have here in the Dallas
Fort Worth area and in North Te.
The normal high temperatures
stay in the 90s until September
13th and then the normal high
temperature drops to 89 degrees.
And the rest of the season we've
already had six triple digit dao
far this year we average 20 in a season,
so the rest of the season the averages
for 16 more triple digit days.
So I I remember my my summer forecast,
June, July and August.
My summer forecast is for warmer
than normal temperatures and abt
near or a little bit wetter than
normal as far as precip goes.
But I don't expect it to be a
record setting hot summer for us
here because we're in an El Nin.
The record setting hot summers almost
always happen during a La Nina.
Right now clouds are starting
to increase across the area.
Here we are overnight.
Little bit of rain up along the Red River.
8:00 o'clock tomorrow morning.
Check this out, there's noon.
Little bit of spotty rain.
I don't have a lot. Tomorrow.
20% of us pick up rain as we
head through the day tomorrow.
There's 7:00 PM tomorrow and thn
as we head to 11:00 PM Saturday.
Severe weather threat tomorrow
is mainly in Oklahoma.
It's a real low chance of some gusty winds,
you know, from Denton
McKinney and then areas north.
And then here's Saturday
night at 11:00 o'clock.
And then you see a little rain
late late Saturday night,
8:00 in the morning on Sunday,
10:00 in the morning Sunday,
There's noon Sunday.
I'm showing you all this because I don't
want you to cancel any of your weekend plans,
but there's 4:00 PM on Sunday.
You can see a little thunderstorm out there,
but but please be weather aware this weekend.
Although this isn't a Tornadic situation,
it's not a big hail situation.
It's a lightning situation
with any thunderstorms.
We've already seen the damage and the
problems that lightning can cre,
so please don't take that too lightly.
Here's what I have in my
forecast for tonight.
We'll drop to 78.
Not a bad night, but for this te
of year the normal low is 75.
We bought them out at 78,
so breezy, warm and muggy.
We hit 98 tomorrow, hot humid d,
98, the normal highs 95.
Look at that.
There's the record on Wednesday.
My forecast is 100.
We're not even close to the rec.
The records 110.
The record Thursday and Friday is 107.
My forecast 101 and 100.
Those are the triple digits I
have in my forecast.
So it's definitely going to be .
It would be odd in July if it's not hot,
but it's going to be hot,
but certainly not record setting heat.
But heat that I don't want,
don't want you to take too ligh.
