In North Texas, a dense fog advisory was issued for the eastern half of the region until midday on a Monday, with visibility extremely low in some areas. By late morning, this fog dissipated, leading to mostly sunny skies and temperatures reaching the low 70s. A high-pressure system emerged, contributing to increasingly warm and sunny days, particularly on Tuesday when high temperatures were expected in the mid-70s under clear conditions. As the week progressed, a cold front was anticipated to arrive by Wednesday afternoon, prompting modest increases in rain chances, estimated at around 20%. Following the front's passage, temperatures would remain above average for the season, yet a slight cooldown was expected starting Thursday, with highs in the low 70s. The most significant rain chance for the week appeared to be the upcoming Sunday, where the forecast predicted around a 40% possibility of rain, coinciding with a low-pressure system expected to move over the region, potentially affecting the weather with widespread precipitation. This weather system was forecasted to maintain mild temperatures into the next week, indicating a pattern of spring-like conditions ahead with some potential for storms by early next week.
