A Heat Advisory is in effect for Houston through tomorrow night at 10 PM, and today's conditions are no joke. With a morning temperature already sitting at 93°F and humidity doing what Houston humidity does, the heat index is climbing as high as 109 degrees this afternoon — a level that poses a real health risk for anyone spending extended time outdoors.
Today's forecast at a glance: mostly sunny skies, a high of 93°F, and a heat index peaking at 109°F. Wind is out of the south at 5–10 mph with gusts to 20 — present, but not enough to cool you down. Rain chance is just 1%. No relief is coming from the sky today.
Practically speaking: if your car has been sitting in the sun, give it a minute to air out before you get in. If you're walking any distance, wear light and loose clothing and keep water on you. Outdoor work or plans are best saved for early morning or after sunset — midday and afternoon are the danger window.
Tonight brings partly cloudy skies and a low around 81°F, but the heat index stays elevated as high as 106° overnight. It does not cool off meaningfully.
Looking ahead to Juneteenth tomorrow: partly sunny, another high near 93°F, and just an 11% chance of precipitation — the advisory remains in effect through tomorrow evening, so plan any outdoor celebrations accordingly. The weekend brings a slight chance of showers and thunderstorms, mainly Friday night into Saturday. Nothing severe at this point, but worth watching.
Stay hydrated, stay in the shade, and don't underestimate 109 degrees.
