    • Rain chances remain low through Saturday, but a slight possibility of showers returns on Sunday.
    • Cooler temperatures and widespread rain are likely by mid-week, fueled by remnant moisture from Hurricane Polo.

DALLAS - Happy opening day of the State Fair of Texas!

Prepare for the heat this weekend, with highs climbing into the low-mid 90s on Friday and the mid-upper 90s on Saturday and Sunday.

The skies will remain partly sunny with winds light and out of the east/southeast.
