CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas — Happy Taco Tuesday! It's feelin' incredibly soupy today!!
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
- Moderate heat for most neighborhoods today
- Isolated showers this morning
- Strong storms tonight, some severe
Be sure to check on children, pets, and the elderly because they are most susceptible to heat-related illness. Moderate heat risk (2 out of 4) is expected for most neighborhoods on Tuesday. Expect humid conditions to take things up a notch this afternoon. Temperatures will warm to the upper 80s and low 90s, and 'feels like' temps in the upper 90s to triple digits. This heat will be oppressive even with a good deal of clouds. Why? Because we are in the "warm sector" of the big weather picture (south of the warm front in red).
Showers and storms increase tonight and into early Wednesday morning. Some storms will pack a punch and could become severe. This will continue into early Thursday as a weak cold front passes through the Coastal Bend. Showers will eventually wrap up on Thursday evening. Dry conditions will be back in the time for the weekend. Temperatures will be slightly warmer than normal for this time of year, but with less humidity this weekend, it won't feel too bad out there.
