DISCUSSION
ISSUED AT 249 PM CDT WED AUG 5 2026
NO CHANGES TO THE FORECAST ONCE AGAIN. EXPECT MID-LEVEL HIGH
PRESSURE TO DOMINATE THE PERIOD. EXPECT THIS TO PROMOTE WARM AND
MOSTLY RAIN FREE CONDITIONS OUTSIDE OF SEABREEZE CONVECTION. SOME
SPOTTY SHOWERS HAVE BEEN POPPING UP WITH THE ARRIVAL OF THE
SEABREEZE THIS AFTERNOON. THIS IS THANKS TO SOME MIDLEVEL ENERGY
RIDING THE PERIPHERY OF THE RIDGE COMBINING WITH THE SEABREEZE.
THESE WILL CONTINUE TO BE ISOLATED IN NATURE AND WILL DIMINISH
THIS EVENING. WILL CONTINUE TO MONITOR THE NEED FOR SOME SHORT-
FUSED HEAT RELATED PRODUCTS. WE COULD SEE HEAT INDICES UP TO 115
AT TIMES WITH DEW POINTS AROUND THE MID TO UPPER 70S PRESENT
THROUGH THE NEXT WEEK. THIS TRANSLATES TO MODERATE TO MAJOR HEAT
STRESS CONDITIONS THOUGH WE COULD SEE SOME AREAS REACH EXTREME
CONDITIONS BY THURSDAY. WE STRONGLY ENCOURAGE THE PRACTICE OF HEAT
SAFETY IN THESE CONDITIONS. TAKE FREQUENT BREAKS AND REMEMBER TO
STAY HYDRATED, CHECK THOSE BACKSEATS, AND AVOID LONG EXPOSURE IN
THESE TEMPERATURES. FOR MORE INFORMATION BE SURE TO CHECK OUT
WEATHER.GOV/HEATSAFETY.
