Why does the weather always change during the last week of the State Fair of Texas?
One of the worst October storm events occurred on the evening of Oct. 20, 2019. That fateful night an EF3 tornado tore through North Dallas/Richardson and an EF2 hit Rowlett, leaving $1.5 billion in damage.
So back to the State Fair of Texas. When a strong, fast-moving October cold front arrives, fairgoers take note of these abrupt weather changes, especially if caught off guard by a dramatic drop in temperature. And of course, there's nothing more disappointing for a kid to have a day at the fair rained out. For this reason alone, inclement weather can often leave a lasting memory at the fair.
The timing for rain appears to be from midday into the afternoon and evening. Some heavy downpours are possible, especially late Sunday.
