You don\u2019t want to overdo it.\u201d \u2013 Grant Johnston, KXAS-TV (NBC5)<sup>1<\/sup><\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h2>Summer Temperatures in Dallas, TX \u2013 Hot With A Few Cool Weather Days<\/h2>\n<p>So, while the start of June is expected to be hot, hot, hot, will that be the case for the rest of the summer? Will Dallas summer weather in the coming months be characterized by high temperatures and extreme humidity? The answer is that, yes, it will be a hot summer, but it won\u2019t be a brutal one like the record-breaking heat wave Dallas-Fort Worth residents experienced in 2011.<sup>2<\/sup> Don\u2019t expect over 100-degree temperatures for over twenty-day stretches; that won\u2019t likely happen this summer. The 2011 heat wave and the even worse heat wave that hit Dallas-Fort Worth in 1980 were unique cases:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>&#8220;With high pressure prominent at all levels of the atmosphere over North Texas, [\u2026] a sky devoid of clouds \u2014 thereby allowing a maximum influx of solar radiation \u2014 teamed up with an arid desert-like southwesterly wind to force the temperature at mid-afternoon to a level never before seen in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. Once it settles into position, the subtropical ridge often budges only a little for periods lasting as long as several weeks at a time.&#8221; \u00ad\u2013 George W. Bomar, Texas Water Commission Meteorologist <sup>3<\/sup><\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>If you live in the Dallas-Fort Worth metropolitan area, you can expect a typical hot summer with periods of moderate weather sprinkled in between. The less intense temperatures are mainly due to a weak El Ni\u00f1o which is forecasted to last through the rest of summer in North Texas. The cooler temperatures and heavier than average precipitation that comes with this weather phenomenon will contribute to this year\u2019s more moderate Dallas summer weather.<\/p>\n<p><em>At <strong>AB Moving<\/strong>, our long-distance and <\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.abmoving.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><em>local movers in Dallas<\/em><\/a><em> offer quality residential and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.abmoving.com\/moving\/commercial-moving\/\">commercial moving services<\/a>.
