Very hot and humid this morning
Allen is starting this morning with a very hot, sticky feel that will build through today. The air temperature is 82F, but it feels like 88F. Humidity is high at 74%, and the dew point is 73F, which is why the air feels so heavy. Winds are at 5 mph, with gusts to 18 mph, and the sky is clear.
Today, tonight and tomorrow
Today stays sunny, with a high near 100F and only a 2% chance of precipitation. Heat index values may reach as high as 102, so the heat will feel a little hotter than the thermometer shows. Winds are expected from the south southwest at 5 to 10 mph.
Tonight should be mostly clear, with a low near 79F. Heat index values may still run as high as 103, and the wind is expected from the south southeast around 10 mph.
