Strong storms possible as cooler pattern continues across North Texas
A weak front has pushed into North Texas and stalled, helping to trigger afternoon storms that continued to build into the evening. These storms are expected to taper off late tonight.
Both Saturday and Sunday are forecast to bring slightly cooler temperatures — a relatively mild start to what is typically the hottest month of the year.
A few pop-up storms could develop Saturday across southern parts of North Texas, but most of the region is expected to stay dry during the day.
Overnight, a complex of storms is forecast to move in from the north, bringing another round of strong storms. While severe weather is not expected, heavy rain, gusty winds, and frequent lightning could pose hazards for anyone outdoors.
Another wave of storms is expected to arrive late Sunday night and linger into Monday morning.
Dry conditions are expected to return by Monday afternoon as sunshine breaks through.
For the rest of the week, typical August weather will settle in across North Texas — hot and dry. High temperatures are forecast to climb back near 100 degrees by the end of the week.

After deadly flood, Texas looks to improve its weather forecasts
KERRVILLE, TEXAS — Texas is looking at beefing up the state's extreme weather forecasting, after the National Weather Service struggled to predict the July 4 flooding that left at least 138 people dead. The unnamed storm that caused the floods — dumping 2 to 4 inches of water per hour in some areas — was inherently difficult for forecasting models to predict, experts in meteorology and hydrology told Texas lawmakers at a special hearing on flooding. But it could have been easier, they said, if the state itself collected better data from the atmosphere, ground and waterways. An initial investment of $20 million, they said at the hearing Thursday, would improve state tracking of dangerous weather. Advertisement The experts said improved tracking would complement the National Weather Service and could be a backstop if extreme weather elsewhere draws federal resources away from Texas.
