Pumpkin spice lattes may be for sale again, but Thursday is expected to feel like summer in North Texas.
After a cooler start to the week, the high is forecast to jump significantly on Thursday, up to 101 degrees at DFW International Airport. If triple digits are reached, it would be only the seventh day at or over 100 degrees so far this summer, according to data from the National Weather Service’s Fort Worth office.
The humidity is forecast to be lower than average for September, though, preventing the heat index from climbing significantly above the temperature. The skies are expected to be clear Thursday, with a gentle breeze.
Friday is predicted to be similarly hot and dry, though just under the triple digits. That evening, a cold front is expected to move in that could drop highs down almost 20 degrees, to around 80 over the weekend.
