HOUSTON – Partly cloudy skies with hot and humid conditions, and we’re asking the same question as yesterday: Will we hit record-breaking temperatures again? Looking at Houston/Hobby, we hit 88 at 1:41 on Saturday. The record? 90 back in 2006. So close! And the big question today is — will we hit 90?! And will we break the record?
WATCH YOUR FORECAST HERE: It’s going to be HOT this week!
The HEAT is on Houston:
Thanks to a high-pressure system down — we’re gonna feel it here in Houston this week - as we hit the 90s this week for the first time this year. And a heads up: “Feels-Like” temps hit 100 in some spots in Monday - like Katy!
Stay Healthy in the Heat:
According to the NWS, it’s a water, rest, shade kind of day. Drink water often, take more frequent breaks — especially if you work outside — and grab some shade to cool down. According to the CDC, the first-time temps hit 90 (which the forecast says they will this week), your body has a harder time adjusting because we’re not acclimated to the heat yet! So make sure to take it easy today! Stay hydrated and listen to your body.
Next weekend will be a different story - we’re tracking highs in the 70s. So if you like warmer weather - this is your week!
We are watching for the chance for rain for a very select few for folks that live on the east side between I-10 and I-45. So again, rain for a very select few.
Enjoy the rest of your weekend and make sure to drink plenty of water! Because despite the clouds, it’s going to be hot!
