Record-Breaking Temps: 🥵

If you’re into warm weather, this weekend’s forecast has you singing Tim McGraw’s “I Like It, I Love It, I Want Some More of It!” Especially if you’re hitting the rodeo tonight to see him in concert tonight... But that classic line—“Spent 48 dollars (1995) at the county fair, I threw out my shoulder, but I won that teddy bear”? 🧸 Inflation’s turned that into about $102–$103 today according to U.S. CPI data. And for RodeoHouston 2026, a family of 4 can easily drop $70–$100 just on grounds admission to get in the gates. As our temperatures heat up on our last weekend of the rodeo: Today’s High: 90 Sunday’s Morning Low: 64 Average High: 75 Average Low: 55 Record High: 87 in 1907 Record Low: 30 in 1996 A heat dome over the West is pushing this record heat our way—spots near Phoenix hit 105–109 yesterday, shattering March records, with more heat on the way today for them and us! And an easy way to understand a heat dome is to think about a pot on your stove in your kitchen: 1. The pot is like the Earth’s surface: A heat dome acts like a lid, trapping the hot air beneath it. 2. Trapped heat can’t escape: Just as a lid prevents steam from rising out of the pot, the heat dome blocks the hot air from rising or cooling off. 3. No cooling down: Normally, hot air rises, or winds bring cooler air to regulate temperatures. But the heat dome stops the process, like a pot left on the stove with no way to cool down. Under this “pot,” it gets really hot and stays hot, causing a heatwave. So what does that mean for us this week? We’ll be above average,75, for the next 5 days. 💧So don’t forget to hydrate, hydrate, hydrate! And as Mario said today at the end of the 6 a.m. newscast—“Always stay humble and kind”—and I agree: “When the dreams you’re dreamin’ come to you, when the work you put in is realized, let yourself feel the pride but always stay humble and kind.” See you at 8 and 9!
