RECORD HIGH SET AT DFW YESTERDAY, LIKELY ANOTHER ONE TODAY. ALL TIME RECORD HIGH IN JEOPARDY TOMORROW

Yesterday, DFW Airport set a record high temperature of 108°F. This breaks the old record of 107°F set in 1925. DFW will likely set another record high today as the record of 105°F set in 2012 will easily be broken with forecast values near 110°F.

A front will be pressing south placing North Texas in compressional warming tomorrow with a west/southwest component to the wind. Combine with near record H85 temps of 30°C and a high pressure ridge approaching 600 dm, may allow for temperatures to get out of control. The all-time record high of 113°F (hottest ever recorded) set on June 26th and 27th, 1980 could be in jeopardy with this type of setup.
