An Extreme Heat Warning is in effect for North and Central Texas, with high temperatures up to 109° and heat index values from 103° to 113°. Extreme heat is dangerous, especially for those without reliable shelter. Limit outdoor activity during the hottest hours (2 to 7 PM), rest in shade or air conditioning, and drink plenty of water.
A dangerously hot Sunday can be expected as temperatures climb well above 100. Elevated fire concerns will also persist region-wide. A very low (10%) chance for storms exists in East Texas, though most will remain dry.
Exceptionally hot weather will mark the start of the week, with high temperatures reaching well into the triple digits. However, a slight cool-down is expected in the latter half of the week as an upper-level disturbance and weak cold front bring increased cloud cover and low chances of rain.
Here are some helpful tips and resources to help prevent wildfires. With the elevated fire threat persisting, make sure to avoid outdoor activities that could ignite grass fires!
Heat can escalate quickly. Warm temperatures can quickly become dangerous. Heat is one of the most deadly weather hazards - don't underestimate it. Never leave people or pets alone in a car.
