For those who follow the data: Sunday was the 29th 100th day of the year. We’re close with 2011 and 1998. 29 100 days to this point is impressive. A typical summer in North Texas averages 20.

Also, it’s been dry.
Rain has fallen in parts of North Texas and even parts of D-FW. But officially at the D-FW airport, no rain has been observed.
Drought conditions will continue to worsen until we get a big rain in North Texas. So far, 2022 is on track to be the 10th driest year on record.

Later this week and through the weekend, a front will stop near or just north of the Red River. This scenario would leave most of Texas without much rain.
–
The best it will do is bring some rain to the Panhandle and a few scattered thunderstorms to NTX Friday through Sunday. Anything more than highs a little below 100° and scattered showers and thunderstorms seems unlikely. But at least it’s something!
