Seasonable heat is on tap today with afternoon highs ranging mostly within the mid to upper 90s to near 100°F along the Rio Grande. When humidity is factored in, higher afternoon heat indices will peak between 101°F and 106°F over portions of the I-35 corridor, Coastal Plains, and Rio Grande Plains. While most locations will stay dry under partly cloudy skies, spotty afternoon and evening storms are possible today along and north of the Balcones Escarpment. Winds will remain light of around 6 to 12 mph with occasional gusts up to 20 mph.
The seasonable heat continues through this week with highs consistently in the 90s to near 100°F. The main weather story features a period of midweek drying accompanied by a light plume of Saharan dust moving through the region. This dry spell breaks by the end of the week as a pattern shift brings increasing rain and storm chances this weekend thanks to gulf moisture. Rain probabilities will jump significantly on Saturday and Sunday, peaking between 30% and 60% alongside a slight drop in afternoon temperatures.
