Heat is the main story
Dangerous heat is the notable weather concern in Prosper this afternoon. The air temperature is 95F, but it feels like 100F under a clear sky. Relative humidity is 42%, and the dew point is 68F. Current wind is listed at 13 mph, with gusts to 10 mph.
The combination of strong sun and late-day heat will keep conditions uncomfortable for anyone spending time outside. Even without rain or storms in the forecast, the heat alone can be a strain, especially during longer periods of outdoor work, errands or exercise.
Today, tonight and tomorrow
Today stays sunny, with a high near 100F and a low near 80F. The chance of precipitation is 1%. Heat index values may reach as high as 103, and a south southwest wind around 10 mph is expected.
Tonight is expected to be clear, with a low around 80 and temperatures rising to around 82. Heat index values may still be as high as 104, with south wind around 10 mph.
Tomorrow continues the same hot, sunny pattern. The forecast calls for a high near 99F, a low near 80F and a 1% chance of precipitation. Heat index values may reach as high as 102, with south southwest wind around 10 mph.
