VFR conditions are expected through Sunday morning. Scattered
cumulus fields will develop over the region this afternoon with
bases between 4-8 ft AGL. Ceilings remain VFR but may become
broken near the coast by Sunday morning with potential for at
least scattered SHRA/TSRA to also approach coastal areas between
14-18Z. Very localized MVFR ceilings and visibility restrictions
will be possible in and near convection. Winds will become
southeasterly to southerly between 5-10 knots over much of the
region this afternoon before becoming light this evening and
overnight. Southeasterly winds increase to around 10 knots Sunday
morning. /21

Issued at 1257 PM CDT Sat Jun 15 2024

Upper level ridging will continue to extend across the region
this afternoon. Dry weather conditions and hot temperatures will
persist through the afternoon underneath this feature. High
temperatures are on track to range between 95-99 degrees over
interior areas along and north of the I-10 corridor and from
around 90 degrees to the lower 90s along the coast. Factoring in
the humidity, we expect maximum heat indices to top out between
99-104 degrees across the forecast area. /21
