Moderately Muggy; Cold Front Due Sunday; Sadly for Southlake




 At the 13:53 reporting, DFW International, the official reporting station for Dallas is:

wind calm, partly cloudy with  a 10-mile visibility. The sky is scattered at 050, The air temp 96°. Dew point 70° with relative humidity at 43 and a heat index of 103°. The altimeter currently  at 30.06 mb and sea level at 1016.7.

A cold front (don't laugh,  but that is what they actually are) is on track to arrive on Sunday evening. Next week we are expected to enjoy a daily high that is below normal for this time of year by 10 degrees. By mid week we should enjoy some rain and thunder storms with  dry air making life a delight for this time of year as temperatures return to seasonal norms.

This morning, in Southlake, the former home of the late NFL player and broadcaster, Pat Summerall went up in flames. The home had sold and was being updated and remodeled. The mansion and others in Southlake enjoy massive set backs from the road and fall well within the million dollar range plus. Summerall loved his Southlake. 

Northwest of DFW International, the area is where the Jonas Brothers lived for a while. There are several sports figures that currently live there. The estate is 5-acres and some have called it the best backyard in the Metroplex. With Southlake Carroll High School just over a mile away, the Friday Night Lights there turn out some future NFL players on a fairly regular basis.

The images come from a hillside of the old Carpenter Ranch in Las Colinas where exciled priest from the 1956 Hungarian Revolution in Zirc, Hungary found  Abbot, Anselm Nagy's leadership bringing the exciled priest to Dallas where they founded  Our Lady of Dallas Monastery and establishing the Preparatory School.
