Heat and air quality lead the forecast

Little Elm starts this morning under an active Air Quality Alert, with very hot weather in the forecast. The current reading is 82F, and it feels like 83F. The air is at 51% relative humidity, with a dew point of 63F. Winds are at 7 mph, with gusts up to 19 mph, and the sky is clear.

Today, tonight and tomorrow

Today is expected to be sunny, with a high near 101F and a low near 82F. The chance of precipitation is 1%, so rain is not a meaningful part of the forecast. The heat index may reach 102F. The forecast also calls for a south wind at 5 to 10 mph.

Tonight should stay mostly clear. The low is forecast around 82F, with temperatures rising to around 84. Heat index values may be as high as 101F, and wind is expected from the south southeast around 10 mph.

Tomorrow looks very similar: sunny, a high near 101F, a low near 82F and a 1% chance of precipitation. Heat index values may again reach 102F, with a south southwest wind around 10 mph.

Alert and safety note

The active alert for Little Elm is an Air Quality Alert from NWS/NOAA. No severity or urgency level was provided in the forecast details, and no other alerts are listed.

Because heat and air quality are both concerns, keep plans simple and cautious. Drink water, take breaks from strenuous outdoor activity, and pay attention to how you feel if you are outside for long. People who are sensitive to air pollution may want to reduce prolonged outdoor exertion while the alert is active.
