Central Texas is expected to return to its average high temperature of 98. However, the heat index will remain high due to humidity. Dew points in the mid 60s and 70s will keep the feels-like temperature between 102 and 104 in the area.

High pressure is dominating the conditions, making hydration and sunscreen crucial for outdoor workers. There is a slight chance of a stray shower or isolated storm in the late afternoon or early evening, brought by southeasterly flow from the Gulf. Any rain that occurs will be light and short-lived.

Further details on the weather forecast are available from KXXV News. The weekend outlook includes a potential opportunity for rain on Sunday in the Brazos Valley.
