An unusually strong ridge of high pressure in the jet stream pattern is resulting in very warm temperatures for this time of year. In fact, the pattern will become even more amplified heading into the weekend. This means record highs will be within reach. Record highs for DFW for both Saturday and Sunday are 97. At least the humidity will remain low, making it more comfortable, and there will be a nice breeze.
A strong fall cold front will by Monday, bringing in cooler weather, but unfortunately no rain. Highs next week will be in the 70s and low 80s.
