Today will be another hot day and a bit more humid than yesterday as temperatures once again will be in the 90s and dew points in the low 70s will cause heat indexes to rise above 100 degrees. A heat advisory is in effect. Skies will be mostly sunny.
Heat advisory remains for Tuesday as hot and humid weather continues but there is a chance of afternoon and evening showers and thunderstorms.
Less hot Wednesday through Saturday as we will have more clouds, but the humidity will remain high as some of the moisture from Hurricane Beryl that is now coming ashore on the Texas coast moves just to our west.. Showers and thunderstorms will be likely much of the time producing very heavy rain at times.
Looks like we dry out a bit on Sunday but it will remain hot with hot weather continuing into at least the middle of next week.
