CORPUS CHRISTI, Tx — Happy Taco Tuesday! Stay safe out there today: Heat Advisories will be in effect from noon to 8 p.m.
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
Another day of dangerous heat is in the forecast. A combination of near-record high temperatures and abundant humidity will keep our 'feels like' temps locked in the 110s for much of the afternoon. Corpus Christi will likely beat the record high temperature for August 20, set back in 2023.
Tuesday's heat will be dangerous, increasing the risk of heat-related illness. Children, pets, and the elderly are most susceptible to heat-related illness, so it's important to check in on friends and loved ones to ensure they're able to beat the heat.
