Mostly hot and dry conditions are expected through much of the week, an isolated storm cannot be ruled out Wednesday afternoon across the far southwestern Texas Panhandle, but confidence is low. Another chance for storms will exist late Friday.

Act fast by moving to a cooler area, loosening clothing, sipping cool water. Seek medical help if symptoms don't improve. Heat exhaustion can lead to heat stroke. Symptoms of heat stroke include confusion, dizziness, and becoming unconscious.
