DFW’s Summer 2026 one of the hottest & driest ever
Isolated to scattered thunderstorms, accompanied by locally gusty winds and brief heavy rainfall, will be possible this afternoon and evening primarily west of I-35.
Above-average temperatures and dry conditions will persist through this weekend for those along and east of the I-35 corridor. Locales west of I-35 may see a few isolated showers and thunderstorms tomorrow afternoon, in addition to the above-average temperatures. More widespread chances for precipitation arrive on Sunday as an unsettled pattern enters the region.
A more active pattern will return to the Central and Southern Plains next week, bringing increasing chances that we'll see the season's first true cold front across the region. Stay up to date with the latest forecast at weather.gov/fwd.
DFW's incredibly long dry streak is officially over with the airport measuring 0.01" of rain this evening, tying the 2nd longest period with no measurable rain on record at 67 days. DFW will also likely end up with 52 days in the 100s this year, tying for 5th most on record.
