Freezing rain in Fort Worth’s forecast? When North Texas could see winter weather
After a mostly sunny, cool Thanksgiving week, some forecasters suggest freezing rain could be possible the first week of December in Fort Worth.
According to the Weather Channel, a chance of freezing rain is expected in the Fort Worth area on the night of Monday, Dec. 1, and the morning of Tuesday, Dec. 2. Temperatures are expected to dip below freezing at around 26 degrees the night of Dec. 1 before reaching a high of around 42 on Dec. 2., the Weather Channel 10-day forecast says.
On the other hand, a National Weather Service meteorologist said the NWS Fort Worth office’s forecast currently runs through Dec. 1 and it shows no signs of freezing rain or any winter weather in the Dallas-Fort Worth area.
And AccuWeather’s extended forecast predicts warmer temperatures, showing a low around 42 on Dec. 1.
A clearer picture of whether rain or freezing rain is possible on Dec. 1 and 2 should be available on Wednesday of this week, the NWS meteorologist said.
In the meantime, thunderstorms and rain showers will return to the North Texas forecast this weekend, the weather service said. There’s a 40% chance of rain overnight Friday into Saturday, Nov. 29, according to the NWS. Rain will continue most of Saturday and into Sunday, Nov. 30.
After flooding on Monday, the weekend storms will bring lighter rain than past storm systems, and severe weather is unlikely, according to the NWS.
