In Depth:
Clouds brought a brief respite from the heat and humidity on Juneteenth with temperatures topping out just a bit below average. Our top temperature Wednesday was 87 which is still plenty hot, but technically below the normal high of 88 and no where near the sweltering heat expected this weekend.

Near record setting heat is expected this weekend with highs climbing into the upper 90s by Friday.

Tropical Storm Alberto formed Wednesday and is expected to make landfall as a tropical storm along the central East coast of Mexico overnight tonight through daybreak Thursday as a tropical storm bringing around 6"- 8" of rain to interior portions of Mexico.

Rain chances return next week which will help knock temperatures down a touch for most of next week.
