Tuesday morning weather forecast

The heat will intensify over the next few days. In fact, by the middle of the week, we are likely flirting with triple digits as a big ridge of high pressure gets stronger. This would be near record heat for parts of SE Texas. Hot, humid and mainly dry weather will persist through the weekend with only a very slim shot for rain through early evening and again on Sunday. Tropics remain active with Fiona now an even stronger Category 2 hurricane. It is pulling away from the Dominican Republic and is set to brush by the Turks and Caicos Islands Tuesday where Hurricane Warnings are in place. It is not a threat to Texas or the US east coast but could bring impacts to Bermuda late in the work week.
