Extreme Heat Continues in Corpus Christi: What to Expect Over the Weekend

Corpus Christi, Texas – Dangerous heat will continue to grip South Texas, with temperatures reaching between 91°F and 105°F through Monday.

Scattered afternoon storms offer only a slight chance of relief, and residents across the Coastal Plains and inland areas are urged to limit outdoor exposure during the hottest parts of the day.

High Temperatures and Heat Index

The National Weather Service in Corpus Christi forecasts daily highs of up to 105°F in western counties, with coastal areas, including Corpus Christi and Port Aransas, experiencing temperatures in the low 90s.

While rain chances are minimal—ranging from 5% to 30% depending on the time of day—isolated storms are most likely in the afternoon, especially across the Coastal Plains.

Humidity levels will remain high, contributing to an elevated heat index that will make it feel even hotter. The risk of heat-related illnesses is a major concern, particularly for those without air conditioning or those working outdoors.

Residents are urged to stay hydrated, avoid strenuous activities during peak heat hours, and check on vulnerable neighbors, including the elderly and pets.

No Major Cooldown in Sight

This stretch of extreme heat is expected to persist through early next week, with no significant cooldown in the forecast. Additional heat advisories may be issued if conditions worsen over the next few days.
