There’s another 10% chance of showers or storms on Wednesday, mainly west and south of DFW; otherwise, it will be warm and above average through this weekend and into early next week.
Next Tuesday will be the best chance of widely scattered showers and storms as a front moves through North Texas. This will drop temperatures into the 80s on the final day of September, likely the only day this month with below-average temperatures.
