There are only so many ways I can tell you how hot it has been and how hot it will continue to be. So here's a look at what we've seen over the last few months, and I'll have Michael Scott take it away. https://t.co/1lwIFxf7uY
Given how hot it has been and hot it is going to be, it is no surprise that our wildfire danger is continuing to increase all across Central Texas. Make sure you are staying safe because the last thing we need on top of this heat is fire. https://t.co/1lwIFxf7uY
If you are feeling down on a Monday, then tell the temperatures to at least fall down because they are doing the exact opposite. Oppressive heat is expected throughout the week with no relief in sight. https://t.co/1lwIFxf7uY
Yikes, the drought situation is looking good as the lack of rainfall and cloud cover is really beginning to take its toll. On top of that, more dangerous heat is expected by next week. https://t.co/AdBgAaOKjM
It's wildfire season across Central Texas and believe it or not, most of the fires we see popping up are human caused. You can be prepared and help stop the risk of fires by following these simple tips. As always, stay safe and cool. https://t.co/1lwIFxf7uY
Attention Texans, we need the rain to stop this heat and drought. This time of year, only the hurricanes can help out so sing along with me: "I bless the rains down in Africa!" Only time will tell now if anything develops in the tropics. https://t.co/1lwIFxf7uY
You want to make sure you are not only practicing heat safety given the heat advisory, but also fire safety as every county under our viewing area is now under a burn ban. These won't go away until we get substantial rainfall or a cool down. https://t.co/1lwIFxf7uY
Guess who's back? Yep, the heat advisory that was affecting our western counties has pushed its way into the I35 corridor. The heat is by no means as bad compared to last week, but it was better when we didn't have to worry about it. https://t.co/1lwIFxf7uY
Does it feel a bit cooler outside, or am I just losing my mind? Nope, it's true, the cold front form the weekend left our morning temperatures a bit cooler. Plenty of sunshine today will push our highs into the triple digits, but not nearly as bad as last week.
Afternoon highs and heat index values will be on the decrease going into the weekend. Although, temperatures are still going to be hot enough that I going to be increasing my friendship with my air conditioner. https://t.co/1lwIFxf7uY
More of the heat is continuing into this afternoon with the Excessive Heat Warning extended until the evening. It is getting hot inside too, so you can probably understand why most guys wear a jacket on air. (It's to hide the sweat stains!) https://t.co/1lwIFxf7uY
Ice cream makes everything better, especially in temperatures like these. With that in mind, you might want to eat it indoors or in the shade given that the relief from the heat is still a number of days away. https://t.co/1lwIFxf7uY
Well, these triple digit temperatures are taking a real toll on our electric bills as they refuse to go away. At least I have the chance for some relief in the extended forecast, as long as the models hold true. https://t.co/1lwIFxf7uY
If we don't break a record for afternoon high temperatures, then we will likely still tie or break our hottest temps of the year so far. I wish that these windmills actually cooled us down. https://t.co/1lwIFxf7uY
The latest drought monitor is out and the news is not great. All of Central Texas is now under some type of drought. Rain chances are coming back by Sunday, but model data isn't looking very promising. We'll all be like this squirrel if it comes. https://t.co/1lwIFxf7uY
Given how quickly these temperatures rise once the sun comes up, yeah it did escalate quickly. The excessive heat warning is still staying effect for this afternoon so be sure to stay cool out there! https://t.co/1lwIFxf7uY
Dry conditions, high temperatures and strong winds have reached the point to where we need to watch out for elevated wildfire danger. Be sure to observe burn bans and don't burn unless you check with your local officials first. https://t.co/1lwIFxf7uY
Another hot day is in the forecast for this afternoon as heat index values will reach into the 110's. It is enough that the National Weather Service has upgraded the heat advisory to an excessive heat warning for much of Central Texas. https://t.co/1lwIFxf7uY
Our temperatures are getting so hot this week that I had to take a second look at this graphic. The heat index is off the charts. Yeah, Steve Harvey, I get it. Be sure to stay cool because this heat is not going away anytime soon. https://t.co/1lwIFxf7uY
We all knew that the triple digit temperatures would come back into the forecast, but it will be hanging around throughout the extended with a heat advisory in effect for this afternoon. Yeah, I looked like Michael Scott too. https://t.co/1lwIFxf7uY
