Tropical disturbances from the Caribbean bring the potential for drenching rain and moisture for parts of the southern United States, including coastal Texas and Florida; however, Dallas will not see any of it.
This week's weather will be humid and warm with consistently high temperatures in the mid-90s and nighttime lows in the mid-70s.
However, a cold front moving into the city Thursday night into Friday, could bring much needed rain to the drought stricken area.

Temperatures are forecasted to drop a few degrees into the low 90s on Friday accompanying the cold front.
Thunderstorms are possible in spots on Thursday afternoon but the greatest chance for storms will be centered around Friday.
"A cold front will come into Dallas on Friday, bringing a decent chance of showers and thunderstorms." AccuWeather Expert Senior Meteorologist Dan Kottlowski said.

This front may bring enough rain to help relieve the city's drought conditions but it will not bring any prolonged rains to the city.
After moving out of Dallas, the front will move to the southeastern coast of Texas and then the Gulf Coast on Saturday.
Sunny skies will return to the city on Saturday and will remain through Sunday.
