A bit of rain could bring temperatures down a few degrees tomorrow, but the seemingly neverending heat will be back to punish the Dallas-Fort Worth area for the rest of the week.

The National Weather Service (NWS) in Fort Worth is predicting a weak cold front will bring a chance of isolated showers and thunderstorms across the region. Any showers or storms that develop will likely stay north of the metroplex today before shifting to offer some temporary relief to the metroplex on Tuesday.

Juan Hernandez with NWS Fort Worth told The Dallas Express that the chances of rain are only between 10% and 15% and that any storms will likely be “shortlived.” The greatest chance for storm development will be along the Texas border with Oklahoma.

There could be some lightning and gusty winds, but no severe conditions are expected at this time.

Areas that do not see any rain can expect to experience more triple-digit temperatures. A heat advisory is already in effect for most of the region, with temperatures ranging from 103 to 108.

Hernandez said that after the “cold front” leaves, temperatures will remain in the triple digits for the remainder of the week. He claimed that the upcoming weeks will be the hottest of the year, noting that temperatures are already well above average. However, the highs will begin to taper off by the middle of the month.

“The normal high for this time of the year is 97, which is actually the hottest part of the year. [Its] our hottest, normal temperature, and we start to see on average decreasing of normal temperatures in the latter half of August,” said Hernandez. “So by the 15th of August, our normal temperature starts to go down to 96, and then we start to step ladder down into September.”

North Texans are advised to continue practicing heat safety as the relentless triple-digit temperatures continue to pummel the region.
