FORECAST:

Good morning! It looks like the hottest day of the year is upon us. Temperatures are expected to reach 106° in San Antonio, while heat index readings make it seem like it’s 108-111°. This is dangerous heat and heat advisories remain in effect. When it comes to extracurricular activities, here’s how the UIL determines what is and isn’t safe.

During the peak heat in the late afternoon, it’s possible that an isolated thunderstorm could develop. Anything that does pop up would be short-lived and likely wouldn’t bring much precipitation. Gusty winds and lightning are possible, though. The chance of rain is low, but we’ll be sure to keep an eye on the radar later today.

Temperatures will begin to drop today. Triple-digit temperatures are forecast for Thursday and Friday, but it won’t be as hot as today. By the weekend and next week, more clouds and less heat will cause temperatures to drop to over 35 degrees. A low-pressure system will also bring us isolated afternoon showers early next week.

Have a nice day and stay cool! – Justin
