The upper level ridge will remain in control of the weather in
west central Texas through Saturday. Somewhat breezy south winds
will persist through the early evening before diminishing to 5 to
10 mph out of the south/southeast tonight. Lows will be in the
70s. On Saturday, temperatures are expected to cool just slightly,
with highs topping out in the upper 90s along the I-10 corridor
to near 104 degrees in the western Big Country. Heat Index values
should max out near 102 degrees. Although it will still be hot, it
looks like any Heat Advisory readings will be isolated, so will
hold off on issuing a Heat Advisory for now.
