Corpus Christi, Texas – Dangerous heat continues across South Texas, with triple-digit highs and a rising risk of thunderstorms by Saturday as tropical moisture pushes inland.
According to the National Weather Service in Corpus Christi, temperatures will soar between 92°F and 106°F through Thursday, with the hottest conditions expected around Laredo, Tilden, and Cotulla. The entire region faces heat advisories, with elevated heat index values increasing the risk of heat-related illnesses. Rain chances are expected to rise to 30-50% on Friday and Saturday, especially along the coast and in Corpus Christi, Rockport, and Beeville, as Gulf moisture streams northward.
Residents from Alice to Victoria should avoid non-essential outdoor activities during the afternoon and stay hydrated. Area roadways, including US-77 and I-37, may become slick during any heavy downpours this weekend. Local emergency management urges everyone to check on neighbors, limit outdoor work, and ensure pets have access to shade and water.
This is the hottest stretch of July so far for the Coastal Bend, mirroring the dangerous heat experienced in the 2022 and 2023 summers. Relief is possible late Saturday if storms develop, with additional advisories likely as conditions evolve.
Warnings remain in effect through the weekend. More updates will be issued as the weather pattern shifts.
