...WELL ABOVE NORMAL TEMPERATURES AND HEAT INDICES EXPECTED
TODAY...

An early season round of hot temperatures is expected over South
Texas today and continuing into much of this week. High
temperatures today could reach the middle 90s over most areas
and as high as 105 over parts Val Verde County and the Rio Grande
Plains. Heat index values could climb into the 104 to 109 degree
range over much of the the I-35 Corridor, Coastal Prairies, and
Rio Grande Plains.

Those spending extended time outdoors and not acclimated to the
heat could be susceptible to heat related illness if not taking
proper heat precautions, such as drinking plenty of water and
taking frequent breaks out of the sun and heat.

Heat Advisories may be issued at some point this week, with the
hottest days of the week projected to be Friday into the weekend.
