The heat wave continues across North Texas with highs once again climbing above 100 this weekend. An Excessive Heat Warning is in effect through 8 p.m. Saturday evening and will likely be extended into Sunday.
Along with the intense heat, the fire danger will remain elevated, especially for areas west of I-35. Red flag warnings are posted for parts of North Texas as breezy south winds combine with low relative humidity and ongoing drought.
