Central Texans are wrapping up the July Fourth holiday weekend with another day of stifling heat and high humidity on Sunday. Temperatures are forecast to reach the upper 90s, with dew points in the 70s pushing heat index values well into the 100s. Morning lows started in the upper 70s in Austin under light clouds, warming quickly under south-southeast winds. Residents spending time outdoors are advised to stay hydrated.
