Current Conditions and Heat Index

The air in Allen feels heavy this afternoon, with a dew point of 72F creating a notably humid atmosphere despite the relative humidity sitting at 59%. The current air temperature is 88F, but the combination of heat and moisture pushes the feels-like temperature up to 94F. Skies remain clear overhead, offering no relief from the sun’s intensity.

Winds are active, blowing from the south southwest at 15 mph with gusts reaching 28 mph, which helps mix the air but does little to lower the perceived heat.

Forecast for Today and Tomorrow

Today will be sunny with a high near 97F. The National Weather Service indicates heat index values could climb as high as 104 during the peak heat of the day. South southwest winds will continue to blow between 15 and 20 mph, with gusts potentially hitting 30 mph. There is no chance of precipitation, so the heat will be dry and persistent.

Tonight, conditions will remain mostly clear with a low around 78F. The heat index will stay elevated, reaching up to 103. South winds will persist at 15 to 20 mph with gusts up to 30 mph.

Tomorrow brings another sunny day with a high near 98F. The heat index is expected to peak around 101. Winds will remain southerly at 15 to 20 mph with gusts as high as 30 mph.

Temperatures will drop to a low of 76F tomorrow night, with the heat index falling to 100.

Safety and Alerts

There are no active National Weather Service or NOAA weather alerts for this area. However, the combination of high temperatures and significant humidity requires care. It is crucial to stay hydrated and limit strenuous outdoor activities during the hottest parts of the day.

Check on elderly neighbors or those without air conditioning, as the overnight lows will not provide full relief from the heat. Keep an eye on the wind, as the sustained gusts can make the heat feel more intense and increase the risk of dehydration.
