Temperatures in North Texas will soar to near record highs on Sunday.

Sunny skies and a west-southwest wind will keep temperatures rising into the mid-90s on Sunday.

The record high for October 13 at DFW Airport is 97 degrees.

This week we will see several cold fronts that will help lower temperatures.

The first is expected after sunset tonight.

The front should clear the area Monday morning. It won’t be exceptionally cool, but we will wake up to temperatures in the 60s and even low 50s depending on where you live.

Temperatures will peak in the mid-80s on Monday, but if you live in the north it could be cooler.

We’ll see temperatures rise again on Tuesday before seeing a second stronger cold front on Tuesday evening, and we’ll get a real taste of fall.

Wednesday we will have lows in the 50s and highs in the 70s! Some people further north and northeast will only see temperatures in the 60s.

7 day forecast

The taste of fall should continue through Thursday, with morning temperatures in the upper 40s to mid-50s and afternoon temperatures in the mid-70s.

The weather will start to warm up towards the end of the week.

We’re keeping an eye on the weekend where we could see a storm system coming out of the Rockies.

It could bring some much-needed rainfall to North Texas, or we could just see humidity and clouds.
