NOAA: A dangerous early season heat wave will cointue over South Texas, and intensify in South Florida, through Memorial Day. Record warm overnight temperatures in these areas will provide little to no relief to those without adequate or reliable cooling.
Heat impacts are likely to be highest in South Texas, where heat index readings approaching or exceeding 115 degrees are expected.
NWS Climate Prediction Center: Hot, summer-like temperatures are expected to impact parts of the Gulf Coast states during the second week of May, with many locations possibly reaching record highs in the low to mid 90s May 8-10.#heatwave#gulfcoast#heat#wx#climate#TXwx#LAwx#ALwx#GAwx#SCwx#FLwx
