Dallas Metroplex: Spring Storms & Allergies

0:00It's April 20th. Welcome to Dallas News Today, powered by AI. I'm Cory with the story. Spring weather's hitting the Dallas Metroplex like clockwork this week, with scattered thunderstorms rolling in and temps climbing into the high. 80s by Friday. After a cool start today, we're looking at lows in the low 70s this afternoon, plus some isolated showers from the southwest. Rain chances pick up tonight through Tuesday morning, dropping less than half an inch in most spots across North Texas, then clearing out for cooler. Highs in the mid 60s Tuesday afternoon. This gives a quid breather before the real warm-up kicks in midweek. Allergy folks, brace yourselves. Tree pollens are already high through Wednesday, dips a bit Thursday, then surges to very high levels by Sunday. Ragweed and mold are holding steady a moderate for now. Forecasters are eyeing a dryline setup late week as planes' disturbances push through and a front stalls nearby. That means low odds of storms daily through the weekend. But some could turn strong or severe.
