( #NWSFortWorth): Fun fact: Earth is closest to the sun around early January of each year. But TODAY feels like we are about 2.5 feet away from the surface of the sun. The current high at DFW is 108, hit at 1:53PM. The last time DFW hit 108+ was on Sept 8th, 23, where the high was 110. 🫠🥵 #TXwx #wx
