7/24 - 2pm - Simply Beautiful Weather

Does anyone remember this time last year? We had a nasty drought and our temperatures were building to a climax, which was 105 in August. Look at our weather now.

We're sitting at 85 with a dew point at 51. That's right, we have a 51 degree dew point right now. Last week I was sitting here complaining about a dew point in the 70's, but now I can't be any happier with our current humidity levels. Unfortunately we're going to venture into the upper 80's for a high tomorrow, with a small chance of rain in the evening. Bumping past 90 on Saturday, rain chances will be greater. The rain should be out of here after a chance on Sunday, ushering in a stable pattern of upper 80's for highs and a few passing clouds.

Quite a few places are without electricity in South Texas and Mexico after Hurricane Dolly. Approximately $750 million in damage has been done in South Texas, with major flooding issues. Read more on some of the damage here.
