...HEAT INDEX VALUES BETWEEN 105 AND 110 DEGREES THIS AFTERNOON...

The combination of well above normal temperatures and high
humidity will produce heat index values up to 110 degrees for a
few hours this afternoon. A few locations may briefly experience
heat index values a degree or two higher (up to 113 degrees). The
favored areas for higher heat index values include portions of
Hidalgo and Starr counties.

If spending time outside today, drink plenty of water, wear light
weight and light colored clothing, and take frequent breaks from
the heat. Young children and pets should never be left unattended
in vehicles.
