Monday started off active with a strong line of thunderstorms waking everyone up around 5 a.m. By the afternoon, conditions cleared, and temperatures remained below average. 

At DFW Airport, about 0.75 inches of rain fell and the high at 3:48 pm reached 91 degrees, which is 6 degrees below average.  

Tuesday morning skies will be clear, temperatures dipping into the mid-70s, and winds will be light. There will be just enough moisture in the atmosphere that may cause some fog during the morning commute. Be sure to use low-beam headlights if needed.

Tuesday is forecast to remain below normal, with temperatures reaching the mid-90s. However, the cooler-than-average temperature trend won't last for long.

A ridge of high pressure is building and will cause temperatures to increase over the next several days. The typical dry and hot August weather pattern is back. There will be plenty of sunshine and highs will flirt with the triple digits by mid-week.
