Warmup through Saturday

On Friday afternoon, expect breezy southwest winds (10-15 mph with gusts up to 20 mph). This will bring highs to near-normal making it the warmest day in about a week. South/southwesterly winds will increase humidity and cloud cover on Saturday ahead of the next cold front. Highs on Saturday will reach the upper 50s to low 60s.

Weekend rain chances

A cold front arrives Saturday night, bringing scattered showers and a few thunderstorms, mainly along and east of I-35. Rain will continue into Sunday as the cold front pushes through, dropping highs back into the 40s and low 50s. While severe weather is not expected, thunderstorms will be possible on Sunday. 

Unsettled pattern next week

Monday and Tuesday look mostly dry, but cloudy as moisture keeps coming in from the Gulf. Another round of rain and storms is possible starting Wednesday as the next system approaches. While the timing of rain could still change, this system could bring widespread rainfall. Keep checking in!
