Monday's Weather: Hot today with highs in the middle 90s
EAST TEXAS (KLTV/KTRE) - We’ve got a fairly “normal” forecast for temperatures on the final week of August, meaning hot 90s sticks around for the majority of East Texas for the next several days. This morning we’re starting off muggy in the 70s with partly to mostly clear skies. We will see a mix of sun and clouds later this afternoon with a slight chance at pop-up showers and t’storms. Most won’t see a drop, meaning you can expect hot highs in the middle 90s with heat indices/feels like temps ranging from 100-105°. Tuesday’s and Wednesday’s weather will be very similar with low-end rain chances and highs back in the middle 90s. Rain chances could slightly increase on Thursday and Friday thanks to our high-pressure ridge remaining off to our east, allowing for a healthier supply of Gulf moisture to stream in during the heat of the day. Something else that we should keep an eye on will be a potential weak cold front sliding in late Friday/early Saturday. This cold front looks to stall along our northern counties by early Saturday but should make slightly better progress through the northern half of ETX by early Sunday before stalling out. The brief return of east/northeast winds along with continued scattered rain chances over the weekend could keep highs in the lower 90s for Saturday and Sunday which is below average for this time of the year!
