It appears some much-needed relief from this brutal summer heat is on the way for North Texas. Cooler weather can’t get here fast enough for me. 

Here’s the thing – I used to love summer. It was always my favorite time of year. And while I still love summer activities like going to the lake and all of the Fourth of July celebrations, I can’t handle the heat the way I used to, thanks to the blood pressure medications I’ve been taking for the last few years (and it probably has something to do with my age as well).

Anymore, I tend to prefer fall. Spring is awesome as well, but I’m a big football fan and so look forward to watching games all weekend long. And of course, the weather is beautiful.

North Texas Forecast: A ‘Fake Fall’ Ahead 

According to the National Weather Service (NWS) Norman X page, what I like to call a “fake fall” is headed for North Texas and Southern Oklahoma next week. 

Now, this is a “fake fall” we’re talking about. Folks from our neck of the woods know exactly what that means. It’s going to tease us when a stretch of nice, cooler weather comes before it gets hotter than Satan’s breath out there again. 

But hey – I'll take every bit of cooler weather I can get.
