We're starting off in the 70s again this morning and we will warm back up into the upper 90s this afternoon. Heat advisories are in effect for areas just east of Dallas today. We also have an Air Quality Alert in effect today as well.
Temperatures will trend down a little bit as we approach the weekend, with a slight chance of a few late day showers and storms sneaking in from the southeast. Best chances will be across central and east Texas, with daytime highs in the low to mid 90s through the weekend.
By late weekend and early next week, we could have a named tropical system in the Gulf of Mexico. If it does form, where will it make landfall? Residents along the Texas, Louisiana, and Mississippi coastlines need to keep an eye on things early next week. I will as well. I'll keep you posted.
