Dallas-Fort Worth Braces for Extreme Weather Swings

Sunday: A Stormy Afternoon Ahead

The week kicks off with a dramatic shift in conditions. Morning starts calm, but by afternoon, storm clouds gather. Temperatures soar to the upper 90s before a line of thunderstorms moves in between 3 p.m. and 11 p.m.

While severe weather risk remains low, be prepared for:

  • Heavy downpours
  • Small hail
  • Wind gusts up to 65 mph

Monday: Heat Takes Center Stage

The storm threat fades just in time for kickoff, but the real enemy emerges—intense heat.

At Dallas Stadium, fans face:

  • Mid-90s for kickoff
  • Feels-like 100°F by game’s end
  • Sticky humidity making it feel even worse
  • Slim rain chance—but cooling is the priority

Tuesday: Humidity Hangs On

The lingering high humidity refuses to ease, setting the stage for a scorching week ahead.


Wednesday Onward: The First Heat Wave of Summer

A strong high-pressure system cranks up the heat, pushing temperatures past 100°F for the first extended stretch of brutal summer weather.

Stay hydrated. Stay cool. Dallas-Fort Worth is in for a scorcher.
