Heat advisory continues in North Texas as "feels-like" temperatures could reach 107 degrees on Friday
Another heat advisory and First Alert Weather Day are in effect on Friday due to dangerous heat lingering around North Texas. Small storm chances are on the way over the weekend. The heat advisory issued by the National Weather Service is in effect until 9 p.m. for most of North Texas. Just like Thursday, the culprit isn't the actual temperature but the heat index. Some areas will again reach or surpass a "feels-like" temperature of 105 degrees. Drink plenty of water, take breaks in the shade or in the AC and don't leave anyone in the car. DFW avoided a 100-degree day yesterday by all of two degrees. The drier air Friday afternoon might be the difference in hitting 100 degrees for the first time this summer. Higher humidity on Saturday, along with clouds, will keep highs in the mid-90s. By Saturday, there is the first chance of rain since mid-July. Coverage won't be great, but afternoon storms will queue up across North Texas. Severe weather isn't expected, but it'll be slow-moving, so heavy rain is possible in isolated areas. Rain chances taper back on Sunday afternoon before North Texas gets right back to hot and dry weather next week.

Strong, severe storms to bring large hail, high winds and heavy rain to North Texas this weekend
Happy Saturday! First Alerts are in effect starting Saturday evening through Monday due to the heat and storm chances. This weekend, highs will reach the mid-90s, but with all the moisture in the atmosphere, the heat index value will be in the triple digits. Be sure to drink plenty of water and take frequent breaks in the shade if you're planning on doing any vigorous outdoor activities. The heat and moisture at the surface combined with an upper-level northwesterly will allow for storms to move through North Texas Saturday night. By Sunday night, a cold front will initiate more storms that will continue into Monday. The Storm Prediction Center has highlighted a level 2 out of 5 threat for Saturday overnight and a level 3 out of 5 for Sunday night. Sunday's threat will be much more widespread, with the potential for a significant threat of severe weather. Large hail and damaging winds are the primary threats, but all modes will still be possible. As for the next week, the cold front stalls on Monday across central Texas. This will initiate more storms as well as cause an active forecast. Stay tuned for the latest forecast updates!
