Monday's Weather: Plenty of sunshine and more heat on the way
EAST TEXAS (KLTV/KTRE) - Get ready for another hot and mostly sunny week! This morning we’re waking up to some muggy 70s with mostly clear skies. Expect a hot afternoon with calm variable winds and high temperatures climbing into the middle to upper 90s. The saving grace with today’s forecast is that our humidity values will be slightly lower compared to last week, which means heat index values will not exceed 105º for as many folks. High pressure will keep our weather hot and dry almost every day this week, with temps potentially climbing into the triple digits for many every afternoon. It does seem that a weak cold front will arrive Thursday/Friday, which might bring some very isolated rain chances as well as a slight drop in temperatures for the weekend.
