The breeze feels almost springlike for mid-November, a striking contrast against the early-winter chill creeping into the northern states this week. Pavement holds a faint warmth, and the sky glows soft and clear—ideal for early travelers and those prepping for approaching Thanksgiving plans.
Residents should use these mild, dry hours wisely. Today and Saturday bring unusually warm temperatures, rising solidly into the 80s. South winds strengthen through the day, occasionally pushing 20 to 30 mph and adding a brisk feel to outdoor errands. Anyone towing trailers, driving high-profile vehicles, or traveling the I-35 corridor should prepare for crosswind push, especially during the afternoon.
But a pattern shift is already developing. Long-range models hint at a subtle Winter Tease for portions of the Plains next week, and while snow remains unlikely in North Texas, a warm-to-cool transition is on the way. Moisture increases late Monday, and clouds thicken quickly. By Tuesday afternoon, a 20% chance of showers and thunderstorms emerges—small, but enough to slow commutes or disrupt early holiday travel timing.
The bigger signal arrives Wednesday as storm energy strengthens. A more widespread round of rain and a few thunderstorms appears likely, with heavy bursts possible. That system drags cooler air behind it, trimming the warmth and nudging Fort Worth toward more seasonable late-November conditions.
Sat: 85/63 – Mostly sunny; breezy south winds.
Sun: 84/64 – Sunny; lighter southwest breeze.
Mon: 88/62 – Warm; clouds building late.
Tue: 81/61 – 20% showers or storms after midday.
Wed: 76/60 – Showers likely; storms possible; much cooler late.
