Our "Heat Dome" continues to dominate over the next few days with sunny skies and highs in the upper 90s/near 100. Heat Alerts will likely continue at least into the start of the weekend. As the high pressure system continues to gradually shift east, pattern changes are within sight. Look for a decline in temperatures early next week, and some isolated to scattered showers in the mix beginning as early as Sunday through the July 4th holiday.

Heat Advisory has once again been extended and is now in effect until 9 PM Wednesday. That means heat index values of 105 up to 112 are possible for the entire area through Wednesday evening. Do what you can to stay safe in the heat by drinking plenty of water, limiting your time outside during the hottest part of the day and finding the shade when you are outside. It's also best to wear light, loose clothing to be more comfortable in the heat. Intense heat near triple digits will hang around through at least Saturday with some slight relief expected by early next week. The big "Heat Dome" will finally shift east this weekend and next week allowing for temperatures to be a bit less hot. This will also allow for at least a few showers and storms to return to the area. Fourth of July holiday on Tuesday still looks hot in the middle 90s but with a 30% chance for spotty PM storms.

Daytime highs look to creep above 100 for most of this week, with more of a southwest wind and slightly drier air in place. The expanding heat dome will slowly drift across Texas throughout the week, leading to a prolonged stretch of dangerous heat. Inland, Excessive Heat Warnings are in place through at least Monday evening but will likely get extended. Along the coast, a Heat Advisory is in place for the same length of time. Use extreme caution if outdoors during the hottest parts of the day, but its best to avoid it if you can. Fingers crossed, by Sunday the pattern might start to break apart some.

The Texas heat wave will continue all week and is likely to intensify - temperatures statewide will soar into the 100-110 degree range. It's going to feel oppressively hot and humid here in Houston for the next few days, but the humidity levels should drop slightly by mid-week. That slightly drier air should also get hotter, so the hottest high temps of the season are on the way.

Heat advisory for eventful Saturday, with Excessive Heat Watch on Sunday

Today is a transition day, and it will still be plenty hot enough with an area-wide Heat Advisory through noon tomorrow. Next week, Texas Heat Wave Part 2 takes over with an Excessive Heat Watch for inland locations beginning at noon on Sunday. Heat Alerts and broken records are likely for the rest of June and the start of July, so long-term heat safety precautions will be needed. Rainfall chances will also be slim with the heat dome centered right on top of us.

Heat Advisory continues for all of SE Texas until 10 PM Saturday with heat index values of 105 - 112 likely. Heat index values could soar to 113+ for much of next week and that means excessive heat warnings will likely return for parts or all of the area. Watch out for an isolated strong storm or two through early tonight. After tonight though, the big "Heat Dome" or area of high pressure will build back in and that will mean more heat and no rain for the next several days. Some record high temperatures could be in jeopardy next week as we are expecting much of next week to be in the triple digits. Tropical Storm Bret and Tropical Storm Cindy will have no impact to SE TX weather as they are forecast to fall apart before they would get close to us.

Get ready for lots of hot and dry days! The long term pattern is "All Heat, and No Weather" as the heat dome expands and parks itself right over central Texas squashing rain chances. One last slim shot at storms exists today, mostly east of I-45. An area wide Heat Advisory is in effect through 10PM Saturday, then next week will likely feature the return of Excessive Heat Warnings. Two storms in the Atlantic now have names, but neither one is coming anywhere near us!
