Wow you'll be baking up there in Dallas this week. It's gonna warm up here too, mid 90's possible later this week.

It's 98º here right now---scorching!!!
We need an afternoon thunderstorm to cool things down.

Right now, an Air Pollution Watch level Orange is in effect.

Same here too TS and the Weatherbug site closest to me is registering 101º right now.

::Pokes his sunburn :: Baking here in Midlothian, Texas! Its 91 right now with a heat index of 97...no wind and clear. Air Pollution watch in effect...its all mostly in Dallas County and Ellis County with the air pollution.

Here in the deep south also:

Reserve, LA (west and slightly north of New Orleans)

It's baking here! 92 degrees at 11 am with a heat index of 104! Where's that heat advisory they had?

FWB, when did you move to TX? Stay COOL, Bro!

We almost topped 100 yesterday, however the heat is still not over yet. An Air Pollution Watch Level Orange still remains in effect for today.

99 right now, heat index 112. Ouch!

98º here with a 104º HI. The high yesterday(official)was 98º, but most of the Weatherbug stations I checked topped out at 100º or above with HI's up to 112º. Supposed to "cool down" to the mid 90's by the weekend.

Officially 95 right now with Heat index of 106. Our low last night was 81! *Hoping for rain soon to cool things off*

However, things could be worse like in Alexandria, LA right now. Air temp of 100 with heat index of 111!

We officially hit 97 here today making it the hottest day this year. The local news station recorded 98 and Alexandria in central Louisiana reported 101. Looks like the worst of the heat is over with tomorrow topping at around 95 and then back to near 90 by next week with afternoon showers.
