CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas — Happy Hump Day (Wednesday)!

Oppressive heat remains in the area, with this afternoons highs reaching the 100s. Today may feel hotter compared to yesterday as a result of high pressure sitting right overhead in the upper atmosphere.

Heat alerts will be in effect the afternoon until 8 p.m.

South winds may offer some relief throughout the day, gusting as high as 25 MPH.

As high pressure retreats back West, we're still holding out hope for a stray shower or two, possibly early next week.

Stay safe!
