A stretch of sunny, warm weather continues Wednesday in Dallas-Fort Worth, with temperatures expected to climb into the mid-80s.
The high temperature is forecast to reach 85 degrees, with a low of 63 degrees, according to the National Weather Service’s Fort Worth office. Temperatures are forecast to remain under 70 degrees until about 10 a.m. before rising through the afternoon.
Tom Bradshaw, chief meteorologist at the weather service’s Fort Worth office, said Tuesday that a ridge of high pressure developing over D-FW will keep temperatures slightly warmer this week, in comparison to the cooler conditions brought during last week’s heavy rain.
Clear skies and light winds are expected to persist throughout the rest of the work week. Afternoon high temperatures will generally rest in the mid- to high-80s, according to the weather service.
Dallas-Fort Worth will be under an air quality alert Wednesday due to the presence of ozone, making it potentially unhealthy for sensitive groups.
