So now we're up to date. Now, you know,
a lot of chaos out there on those roads,
but you do have rights.
All right, here's what's going .
As far as traffic is concerned.
We do have an accident.
This is going to be at Woodlake,
I-10 W at Woodlake.
That's between 4:10 and 1604,
not really causing a backup.
I've got the camera on that
one here in just a minute.
And we got a stalled vehicle.
This is going to be 410 S, right around 90.
All right. A couple of cameras for you.
First one is going to be Woodla.
Here's.
Oh, that's in a bad place.
It's kind of like right on the.
The the median shoulder there nt
affecting main lanes of traffic,
but slowing down a little bit i.
If this continues closer to rush hour,
there probably will be some delays also.
Here's another camera for you.
281 in Encino Rio.
I am not sure why we're just so closed up,
but we're watching what's going on here.
281 Encino Rio and I can tell y.
Not much is happening, but trafc
pretty light out there this mor.
Up. Not bad.
All right, this is a CPS Yellow Energy day.
Energy matters.
CPS says that this is a yellow .
What does that mean?
Well, conserve your energy use between
3:00 o'clock and 8:00 o'clock.
This evening, don't use those big appliances.
Turn off the lights if you're not using them.
Also, use more fans if you can.
Means that Yellow Day means that
there's going to be higher dema,
peak demand day today.
All right.
The maximum heat index today,
I think will be around 106,
just outside of heat advisory criteria.
So I don't know how many
days in row this has been.
I've got to go and look that up.
But it's been a while since we
haven't had a heat advisory,
but we don't have one today officially.
I'll show you the map here in just a minute.
Upper level Ridge is still strong and
I've got your 4th of July forec.
I think you're going to like it.
We're going in the right direction anyway.
Partly cloudy out there right n.
Temperature 76 degrees,
which is close to where we shoud
be for this time of the year.
Record high is 103,
set back a long time ago back in 19 O2.
We may come close to that
record high this afternoon.
I'm expecting a high temperature of one
O 2 later on with wall to wall sunshine.
We're just outside of the heat advisory area,
heat advisory for locations to
the South and east where heat
index values will approach 110,
maybe as high as 112 degrees.
76 Del Rio is coming in at 78,
of course,
the Hill Country a little bit better,
Kerrville 74,
Bernie's at 72 and Port Lavaca 1
with heat index already in the .
All right,
our upper level Ridge of high pressure,
which really pushes down.
It's kind of a subsident flow ad
so that's why we haven't had ha,
hardly any clouds in the sky
and just lots of sunshine.
Any kind of shower or thunderstm
activity just kind of rolls around that
upper level Ridge of high press.
So we want this high to move ouf
the way and move over to the ea.
I can tell you this,
I already like what I'm seeing.
Notice how the Reds and oranges are being
displaced and and changing a little bit.
This high is moving to the eastd
the more that it moves to the east the
more that will tap into the moie
out of the Gulf of Mexico lookig
at heat all across Texas up nor,
place to be is up in Chicago's in the 50s.
Up there in Casper, WY,
it's in the 40s this morning.
So as this high moves eastbound,
watch what happens as we head
into the weekend. It weakens.
And then by the end of the weekend and
then Monday and Tuesday of next week,
hey, that high is gone and realy
replaced by almost like a sheer axis.
And So what that means is daytime heating
is allowed to do its thing with the humidity.
We'll see those clouds buildingn
the afternoon and a few showersd
thunderstorms will build as wel.
For today though, just wall to wall sun.
It's going to be a hot one.
High temperature around 102.
Our aquifer continues to drop o.
We're getting close to the six
20s and that is serious busines.
We're dropping really fast again
on the aquifer.
We need some rain molds,
240 and light tomorrow.
I think 100, a 101, maybe upper 90s, not 100.
Friday and Saturday about 99.
97 on Sunday and then mid 90s for Monday
and Tuesday and I think for the 4th of July.
96 degrees for a high temperatue
and a 20% chance of showers and
storms under partly cloudy skie.
Love the fireworks all right
outside this morning.
