Flood Watch in Effect as Dallas Faces Unsettled Weekend Weather
Hey everyone, let’s talk about the weather here in North Texas — and it’s definitely something you’ll want to pay attention to this weekend.
As we head through Saturday and into Sunday, scattered storms and showers are moving back into the Dallas-Fort Worth area. It’s not going to be a total washout, but the rain we do get could be quite heavy at times. The National Weather Service has issued a Flood Watch for most of North Texas, including Dallas, Fort Worth, Collin, Denton, and Tarrant counties. That watch is in effect until 7 p.m. on Sunday .

So what does that mean for us? Well, rain totals are expected to land somewhere between 1 to 3 inches , but in some places, it could be even higher. That’s especially concerning in areas where storms keep hitting the same locations — that’s when we start to see flash flooding. And even though the chances for severe weather like hail or tornadoes are low, a few storms could bring strong wind gusts and cause localized issues.
If you’re planning to be out and about this weekend, definitely keep an eye on the radar. The storm activity is going to be hit or miss, so while some parts of the Metroplex might stay dry for hours, others could get caught in a downpour. This kind of scattered weather pattern makes it tough to predict exactly where the worst of it will land, so it’s smart to stay weather-aware, especially if you live near creeks or low-lying areas.
Sunday morning still carries that potential for rain, and by Monday, we’ll begin drying out again. That said, the heat and humidity aren’t going anywhere. Morning lows will hover in the 70s, and we’re looking at highs in the low 90s — pretty typical for mid-July in Dallas.
Bottom line: it’s a wet weekend ahead with some potentially troublesome flooding in the forecast. No need to panic, but do take this seriously, especially if you’re on the roads. And remember, if you see flooded streets — turn around, don’t drown.
Stay safe out there and keep checking in for the latest updates from local weather experts.
