The surface winds turn west or southwest Thursday into Friday and the warming trend continues. Temperatures on Friday will warm into the mid to upper 60s. Enjoy the pleasant weather while it lasts because an Arctic front will move into North Texas on Saturday, dropping temperatures drastically.

A Cold Weather Advisory will remain in effect through 9 a.m. Monday morning. The temperature will dip into the teens in many areas, and wind chill values will plummet into the single digits. More sunshine returns for most of the Martin Luther King, Jr. Holiday, but that sunshine won’t provide much warmth, with highs only climbing into the 30s.

Light snowfall across parts of North Texas is possible early next week. The National Weather Service Fort Worth is tracking a strong cold front that will bring arctic air to the Metroplex this weekend. Daily highs are expected to be in the 30s, followed by lows in the 10s and 20s.
