Morning Records:
We are on track to set record warm low temperatures this Tuesday. You can feel it the second you step outside. It feels like the upper 80s and lower 90s throughout most of SE Texas.

Tuesday’s forecast:
Temperatures climb to the upper-90s with a heat index between 100 to 104 degrees. While no heat warnings are in place, don’t let your guard down, keep up with your heat precautions.
