According to KXAN, persistent high pressure will keep temperatures hot through the week, with highs climbing into the mid-to-upper 90s and heat indices feeling even hotter due to high humidity. Isolated showers or storms may pop up tonight, but the overall pattern remains dry and scorching into early next week.
Rain chances increase over the weekend as the high pressure weakens and a surface boundary moves in. Scattered showers and storms are possible, particularly Saturday and Sunday, with highs around 95-96°F. While not everyone will see rain, some areas could pick up decent amounts, offering a slight break from the ongoing heat.
