Today will bring us just a little more heat and humidity from what we experienced on the first of July. But, in retrospect, it will be a fantastic, fairly average day. Highs will be in the upper 80s to low 90s with just a little more humidity, but not a ton. We stay rain free through the day today.
Have a great day!
Looking ahead this week, we all know this beautiful weather won’t last long. And it doesn’t. The heat builds this week with a lot more humidity. That means those heat index values will be back to the mid to upper 90s to near 100°.

THE TROPICS
Hurricane Beryl is now a category 4 hurricane. Today it will be effecting Jamaica, then back to the Caribbean heading toward Mexico. It’s anticipated to continue to weaken, which is great news, but could make landfall near Cancun, Mexico on Friday moring as a category 1 or 2. After that, depedning on how strong this ridge of high pressure in the southeast is, depends on where Beryl goes. Stronger and a more westward ridge, pushes Beryl into Mexico. Weaker high pressure and further east, will allow Beryl to move toward Texas. Only time will tell, so please stay tuned if you’re interested.
A look ahead!
