More rain, storms, lightning to hit Dallas-Fort Worth before drying out. Here’s when
A storm system that has sat across much of the Central U.S. is moving east and a sliver of it will bring more rain and lightning to North Texas by Wednesday, according to an area forecast discussion on the National Weather Service website early Monday.

“Isolated rain showers will be possible during the day Wednesday,” but possibly unstable air brought on by rapidly dropping temperatures over the region may bring more storms and lightning by the afternoon, Fort Worth meteorologist Eric Martello wrote on the NWS website.

As the line of storms that hit Dallas-Fort Worth overnight Sunday with booming thunder and flashes of lightning weakens, moving east to Waco and Killeen, another cold front is expected to move into the region tonight bringing cooler temperatures. Only the sunshine and clearing skies Monday afternoon will keep most of the region from freezing overnight. Lows in the 30s and 40s are expected across the Metroplex early Tuesday morning.

“The brisk and occasionally gusty northwest winds continue on Tuesday despite plentiful sunshine and [solar heating],” Martello wrote. “I have leaned slightly toward cooler guidance as strong low level cold advection looks to continue through early afternoon before becoming neutral. Highs will reach the lower to mid 60s.”

Showers and thunderstorms will exit the area to the east by afternoon with clearing skies, along with breezy, dry, and warm conditions this afternoon. Afternoon high temperatures in advance of a strong cold front arriving this evening will warm nicely into the upper 60s to middle 70s.
