Weather

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.

It's unusual to have two tropical storms in the month of June but we have Tropical Storm Bret & Tropical Storm Cindy. Bret moved over the Lesser Antilles and is expected to fall apart as it moves into the central Caribbean Sunday. Cindy should stay north of the Lesser Antilles and gradually weaken to a Tropical Depression as it moves into the SW Atlantic early next week.

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!

Temperatures are expected to rise for the next upcoming days. Chief Meteorologist Mike Iscovitz also finds a very rare occurrence on our Atlantic satellite.

Brace yourself for more heat and day after day of triple-digit heat. A heat advisory is in effect today and tomorrow with highs in the upper 90s and a heat index near 108. A big ridge of high pressure, the "heat dome" will move right on top of us next week, so expect highs between 100 and 103 every day!

Heat Advisory continues for Houston and surrounding areas through 10 PM Friday. Dangerous Heat Index values up to 105-110 are possible through Friday night. There's also a slim chance for a few strong to severe storms on Friday night. If a storm can get going, it could produce some strong wind gusts, frequent lightning, hail & heavy rain. So stay alert and be ready to head indoors quickly if a storm rolls over your area. After Friday, area of high pressure, or the heat dome will intensify again meaning more hot and dry weather this weekend and next week.

Historic wind gusts were recorded in the Northern parts of our viewing area during last night's storm. Thousands of residents were left without power overnight and much of Thursday as they began the clean-up process. FOX 26's Natalie Hee spoke to a mother who had a close call last night.

Tropical Storm Bret is very close to Barbados with 65 mph winds and Tropical Storm Warnings are out for parts of the Lesser Antilles. Bret is expected to push into the western and central Caribbean Friday and Saturday. It is forecast to weaken and fall apart by Sunday. Tropical Depression Four formed in the central Atlantic with 35 mph winds and could become Tropical Storm Cindy by tonight or Friday. Another tropical wave in the eastern Atlantic could possible develop over the next several days.
