Children should NEVER be left in a car, no matter the time of year. Vehicular heatstroke has occurred when outside temperatures are below 70°F - sunlight can cause the inside of a car to heat up VERY quickly. Stay Weather-Ready. weather.gov/safety/heat-illness

Another hot day on tap for South Texas! Summertime humidity and the sun conspire to make it feel miserable. Please use caution if outdoors. Heat Stroke in no joke! Avoid heat related illness, stay cool and hydrated. Don't forget to look before you lock!

Overnight lows will be in the mid 70s to around 80 degrees. Accompanied by light southeasterly winds and partly cloudy skies.

Sunny conditions can be expected along area beaches today. Accompanied by a low chance of showers/thunderstorms this afternoon. There is a low risk of rip currents, but low risk does not mean no risk, so use caution when in the water.
