Pleasant Start to the Week

*No Texas Weather Discussion Video this morning*

CHILLY START - Temperatures are in the mid 40 to low 50 degree range across the great region of North Texas this morning.  Expect a nice warm up this afternoon with a few clouds.  Highs will be in the mid 70s.

Clouds exit the area on Tuesday, and we warm up during the afternoon with highs in the low 80s with abundant sunshine.

MIDWEEK - A cold front is due in here during the pre-dawn hours on Wednesday, and scattered showers and storms will accompany that front.  It certainly won't be raining all day, but rain is possible at times during the afternoon and evening.  Fortunately, severe weather is not expected, just a classic rainy afternoon and evening here in North Texas.  Rain amounts should stay under a half an inch in North Texas.  Highs will only reach the mid 60s in the warmest spots.

Rain clears to mostly sunny skies for the rest of the work week, and highs should be in the low 70s.

THE WEEKEND - Not much change.  We turn milder for the weekend, and highs will be in the upper 70s.  Some places might hit 80, but that's more likely on Sunday.

NEXT WEEK - The first few days of May looks reasonably dry, though we may deal with a few isolated storms at times.  We project highs in the low to mid 80s under a mix of sun and clouds.  No sign of any significant severe weather event anytime soon.  

DID YOU KNOW? - So far, Oklahoma has survived this April without any tornadoes being recorded anywhere in the state.  If we keep this up for the next week, this will be the first time Oklahoma hasn't had a tornado in April since records have been kept.  We are clearly below average in terms of the number of tornadoes nationwide.
