Weather around Dallas-Fort Worth
Around Dallas-Fort Worth the land is mostly flat, so the useful differences are timing and storms rather than height. Fronts often sweep through in a day, which makes one weekend day much better than the other, and in spring the line of storms can favor towns on one side of it.
Summer is hot almost everywhere within a few hours, so the question becomes which day is less hot. Towns to the east, like Tyler, tend to be a little more humid; west toward Mineral Wells and Abilene it is drier. The drive times start between the two downtowns.
How we pick
"Good" means a high from 55F to 88F, a forecast of sun or clouds, and at most a 30% chance of rain or snow, with no thunderstorm, dangerous heat or cold, strong gusts or smoke. "Mixed" means one day is good and the other isn't. Picks are ordered by that, then by the forecast and how much of a destination the town is.
Drive times start at the center of Dallas-Fort Worth and go to the center of each town. They come from a table built on OpenStreetMap and do not include traffic or seasonal road closures.
