Dangerous heat this afternoon

Dangerous heat is the main weather concern in Gunter this afternoon, with the air temperature at 97F and the heat index making it feel like 104F. The sky is clear, and the air remains quite humid, with a dew point of 70F and relative humidity at 42%.

Wind is currently 10 mph, with gusts up to 12 mph. Even with some movement in the air, the combination of heat and humidity is making outdoor conditions stressful, especially for anyone working, exercising, or spending extended time outside.

Today, tonight and tomorrow

Today stays sunny, with a high near 100F and a low near 79F. The chance of precipitation is 1%, so rain is not expected to offer relief. Heat index values may be as high as 104. South southwest wind is expected at 5 to 10 mph.

Tonight will be mostly clear, with a low around 79. Temperatures may rise to around 81 overnight, and heat index values may be as high as 102. South wind is expected at 5 to 10 mph.

Tomorrow will be sunny again, with a high near 99F and a low near 78F. The chance of precipitation remains 1%, and heat index values may be as high as 102. South southwest wind is expected at 5 to 10 mph.

Alerts and heat safety

There are no active NWS/NOAA weather alerts for Gunter.

Even without an active alert, this level of heat can be hard on the body. Drink water, take breaks in shade or air conditioning when possible, and limit strenuous outdoor activity during the hottest conditions. Check on people and pets who may be more vulnerable to heat.
