North Texas is facing one of the hottest stretches of the summer, with temperatures surging into the upper 90s and triple digits as July draws to a close. A heat advisory is currently in effect for multiple areas across the region, with heat index values expected to reach between 102 and 105 degrees. This extreme heat is being caused by a high-pressure system building back over Texas, significantly reducing the chance for rainfall and increasing both temperature and humidity levels.

A high-pressure system is causing intense heat to sweep across Houston and the nation's largest river valley. This weather pattern, characterized by air pressure higher than normal, leads to sinking air that compresses and warms, resulting in the hot temperatures we've been experiencing in Houston. But Houston isn’t the only place affected— the Mississippi River Valley is also facing extreme heat.
