Persistent high pressure aloft over Texas will get stronger starting Tuesday. This means we’ll continue with very hot temperatures and very little chance for rain.

Highs will continue in the upper 90s and some triple-digit 100s. Some record highs may be equaled or broken.  Heat index values – the “Feels Like” temperature – will rise to 102-105 each afternoon. Guard against heat-related illness by staying hydrated and in the shade. Be especially watchful of children and elderly people as they are more susceptible to heat illness.

Very little day-to-day change is forecast through Saturday.

See the details in the Seven Day Forecast.
