High pressure continues to build into the Gulf, which will ensure that we’ll likely see another run at record-setting temperatures through the end of the week.

The record breaking temperatures continue

Take care of yourself in this heat:

Remember to take breaks to avoid heat exhaustion if you plan to be outside. It usually takes our bodies a few weeks to acclimate to the typical summer Houston heat.

High pressure will continue to move east into the Gulf, keeping temperatures above average and still blocking rain chances

A southerly flow will pull in moisture, increasing dew points and making it feel like 98-102 degrees through late week. Remember to take breaks to avoid heat exhaustion if you plan to be outside.

Feels like upper 90s to low triple digits

10-day forecast:

The above-average heat stretches into next week with no real chance of rain. Temperatures will challenge records and have Texans wishing it felt like May instead of July and August.
