Frisco is currently experiencing oppressively humid conditions this morning. The air temperature stands at 82F, but the high moisture content makes it feel significantly warmer, with a feels-like temperature of 94F. Relative humidity is at 94%, and the dew point is 81F, indicating a heavy, muggy atmosphere that is difficult to shake. Winds are blowing from the south southwest at 13 mph, with gusts reaching 18 mph. The sky remains mostly cloudy at this hour, but the heavy moisture is the dominant feature of the current weather.
Today and Tonight Forecast
Despite the current cloud cover, the National Weather Service forecasts sunny skies for today. Temperatures will climb to a high near 97F. However, the real concern is the heat index, which is expected to reach values as high as 100. This combination of extreme heat and humidity creates dangerous conditions for prolonged outdoor activity. Winds will strengthen during the day, becoming south southwest at 15 to 20 mph, with gusts as high as 30 mph. There is a 0% chance of precipitation, so the heat will be dry and intense.
As tonight approaches, skies will clear completely. The low will drop to around 78F. While the temperature may seem slightly more manageable, the heat index will remain high, with values as high as 100. Winds will continue from the south at 15 to 20 mph, with gusts up to 30 mph. Residents should remain vigilant regarding heat-related illnesses, as the humidity will prevent effective cooling even after sunset.
Tomorrow Outlook
Tomorrow will bring another day of sunny skies with a high near 96F. The heat index is forecast to reach as high as 100 again. Winds will shift slightly to the south at 10 to 15 mph, with gusts as high as 25 mph. There is no chance of rain, so the heat will persist without relief from storms. Temperatures will fall to a low of 79F tomorrow night, with the heat index dropping slightly to as high as 98. Winds will remain from the south southeast at 10 to 15 mph, with gusts up to 25 mph.
