Almost no rain has been recorded so far in Dallas-Fort Worth for November, but that looks like it’s about to change.
Rain is expected to move into North Texas Wednesday evening, starting with the western side of the region, according to the National Weather Service’s Fort Worth office.
More widespread showers and storms are expected to develop in the late evening and overnight, with a 50% to 70% chance of precipitation for most of the region.
Rain is expected to continue for much of Thursday. The weather service is expecting rain to continue from Wednesday into Thursday morning, with another round of storms moving in Thursday afternoon or evening. While a few storms may become severe, the weather service said the overall threat is low.
