- MUCH DRIER AND HOTTER WEATHER PATTERN IS STARTING TO SETTLE

DISCUSSION
ISSUED AT 1203 AM CDT FRI JUN 26 2026
UPPER-LEVEL ANALYSIS IS SHOWING THAT RIDGING WILL BEGIN TO CONTROL
THE REGION AS WE HEAD DEEPER INTO THE WEEKEND, WHICH WILL LINGER
INTO THE START OF NEXT WEEK. AS A RESULT, THE RAINFALL CEASES AND
THE HEAT INCREASES. TEMPERATURES WILL BEGIN TO SLOWLY INCREASE
ACROSS THE REGION, STARTING AS EARLY AS TODAY. ONE CAVEAT TO THAT,
WE THOUGHT TEMPERATURES WOULD BE WARMER ON THURSDAY, AND THEY
SEEMED TO UNDER PERFORM SO I DID TREND ON THE LOWER END OF
GUIDANCE FOR TODAY. THAT BEING SAID, I THINK WE WILL SEE SOME MID
90S ACROSS SOME OF OUR DEEP EAST TEXAS ZONES, SOME UPPER 80S
ACROSS OUR FAR NORTHERN ZONES, AND THEN 90S FOR EVERYONE ELSE.
TEMPERATURES INCREASE A DEGREE OR TWO ON SATURDAY AND THEN BY
SUNDAY WE WILL SEE EVERYONE IN THE 90S, WITH SOME UPPER 90S ACROSS
DEEP EAST TEXAS.
WE WILL NEED TO WATCH OUR HEAT INDEX VALUES THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF
NEXT WEEK AS THEY WILL BEGIN TO REACH DANGEROUS CONDITIONS. DEEP
EAST TEXAS WILL BE THE FIRST TO SEE THIS, WITH A FEW 105 DEGREE
VALUES SPRINKLED IN TODAY. WE REMAIN BORDERLINE FOR HEAT
ADVISORIES ON SATURDAY, WITH A FEW MORE AREAS REACH TOWARDS THAT
105 DEGREE MARK. SUNDAY COULD BE THE FIRST DAY WE START TO ISSUE
HEAT HEADLINES FOR PORTIONS OF THE AREA, ALTHOUGH MODELS TONIGHT
HAVE COME IN A LITTLE LOWER ON THESE VALUES. MONDAY AND TUESDAY
COULD BE A DIFFERENT STORY, AND SOMETHING WE WILL NEED TO WATCH
FOR ANY HEADLINES NEEDED. THE NEXT CHANCE FOR ANY PRECIPITATION
ACROSS ANY PORTION OF THE REGION ISN'T EXPECTED TILL THE MIDDLE OF
NEXT WEEK, ALTHOUGH AS EXPECTED, MODELS ARE IN DISAGREEMENT. /33/
