NEVERTHELESS...HEAT INDICES WILL AGAIN RISE TO AROUND 100 TO 105
DEGREES AT MANY LOCATIONS WITHIN OUR FORECAST AREA...ESPECIALLY
THE CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN PARTS. THE HEAT ADVISORY REMAINS IN
EFFECT UNTIL TOMORROW EVENING.

A COLD FRONT IS FORECAST TO ARRIVE LATE IN THE WEEKEND...BRINGING
SOME MODEST RELIEF FROM THE HEAT. AS THE FRONT CONTINUES SOUTHWEST
INTO TEXAS...SOUTHERLY FLOW WILL RESUME OVER THE FRONT AROUND THE
MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK. THIS WILL PROBABLY SET UP A SITUATION SIMILAR
TO WHAT PRODUCED RECORD COOL MAXIMUM TEMPERATURES LAST WEEK.

WEDNESDAY...WITH HIGH TEMPERATURES AROUND 15 DEGREES F BELOW
AVERAGE.

A FEW SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE WITH THE WEEKEND
FRONT AS IT MOVES SOUTHWEST ACROSS THE REGION...BUT WARM
TEMPERATURES ALOFT WILL LIMIT COVERAGE AND INTENSITY.
