Houston Weather: Scorching heat continues but small chances of relief expected

Excessive Heat Warning remains in effect for Houston and surrounding areas until 8 PM Tuesday. Heat index values of 108 to 115 are possible which will continue to make it dangerous and uncomfortable to be outside. Heat advisory continues for Coastal Jackson, Coastal Matagorda, Matagorda Islands & Brazoria Islands until 8pm Tuesday. Heat index values could be as high as 110. Triple digit temperatures are likely for the next few days with high humidity. This means you should continue to drink plenty of water, avoid exercising outside from 11 AM - 6 PM, take breaks in the shade if you have to work outside and check your car for kids and pets before you walk away. It will still be hot Thursday through Saturday but should stay below triple digits. Slight relief is also possible in the form of a few rain showers Tuesday through Friday. Triple digit temperatures are set to return early next week!
