DISCUSSION

Issued at 312 PM CDT Sun Aug 2 2026

Convection activity has continued to taper off the last few hours as the atmosphere continues to stabilize. The aforementioned boundary will continue to track out of the region with drier air filtering in it's wake. Mid-level high pressure will build over the next couple of days taking over by midweek. Expect this to promote warm and mostly rain free conditions outside of likely seabreeze convection. With the ridge building, so will those ugly feels like temps. We will see heat indices up to 115 as early as Tuesday with dew points around the mid to upper 70s present. This translates to Moderate to Major heat stress conditions. We strongly encourage the practice of heat safety in these conditions. Take frequent breaks and remember to stay hydrated, check those backseats, and avoid long exposure in these temperatures.
