CWG Live updates: Summertime comfort for the Fourth, and similar tomorrow

Welcome to cwg.live, updated around-the-clock by Capital Weather Gang meteorologists.
Happening now: Sun and seasonably warm with un-humid highs in the mid-80s to near 90 make for a pleasant Fourth. A Code Orange air quality alert is up for some air pollution.
What's next? Most likely rain-free Saturday with a slight storm chance returning Sunday as humidity rises. A cold front early week brings tropical moisture into our area from the south with a strong storm chance by Tuesday.
Today's daily digit — 8/10: Average heat but superbly low humidity, for July. Enjoy the dry warmth and good weather for fireworks, though a bit more breeze might help disperse smoke better. | 🤚 Your call?
The digit is a somewhat subjective rating of the day's weather, on a 0-to-10 scale.
Forecast in detail
Today (the Fourth): Sunny with a 'dry heat' thanks to very low humidity (dew points in the 50s) for July and highs in the mid-80s to near 90. Breezes are light from the north-northeast. Confidence: High
Tonight: Clear and very light if any breezes for fireworks time, with temperatures within a few degrees of 80. Predawn lows end up in the 60s. Confidence: High
Saturday: Outdoor time is still in the clear with gentle breezes, highs in the mid-80s to around 90 degrees and only a small uptick in humidity. Confidence: Medium-High
Saturday night: Mostly clear with lows in the mid-60s to near 70. Any light winds should calm quickly. Confidence: Medium-High
Sunday: It's still fairly sunny with just a slight afternoon and evening thunderstorm chance as humidity rises more notably. Highs may get hot again, though about average for this time of year, in the upper 80s to low 90s. Confidence: Medium-High
A look ahead
Sunday night: Muggier lows may bottom out within a few degrees of 70 and skies are partly cloudy after any early evening storm or two. Confidence: Medium-High
Afternoon and evening shower or storm chances trend upward on Monday as a humid-feeling surge of tropical moisture arrives from the south. A fair amount of sunshine helps keep highs warm, within a few degrees of 90. Confidence: Medium
As a cold front approaches Tuesday, the likelihood of showers and storms increases significantly. One or two storms could be strong to severe with high winds and intense downpours. Uncomfortably humid highs aim for upper 80s to low 90s. Confidence: Medium

'Heartbroken' Texans pledge $500K to aid Texas Hill Country communities after devastating floods

The Houston Texans announced on Saturday that the organization is donating $500,000 to help support those affected by the devastating floods that hit the Texas Hill Country this week. "We are heartbroken by the loss and damage that our neighbors in the Texas Hill Country have endured. We are especially devastated to hear about the children who are still missing and we are praying they are reunited with their families soon. Our hearts will remain with everyone affected and in addition to our donation, we will continue to support the search, rescue and recovery efforts in the coming weeks." A storm swept through the area, killing at least 27 people, including nine children. Officials said that 23 to 25 girls from a summer camp in Hunt, Texas were still unaccounted for and that approximately 850 people have been rescued so far. Advertisement 'The camp was completely destroyed,' said 13-year-old Elinor Lester, who was one of the campers at Camp Mystic. 'A helicopter landed and started taking people away. It was really scary.' Fast-moving waters rose to 26 feet along the Guadalupe River in less than an hour on Friday morning. Heavy rains are forecasted for Saturday with flash flood warnings and watches remaining in effect for parts of central Texas. Boston Red Sox third baseman Alex Bregman, who spent the first nine seasons of his MLB career with the Houston Astros, has posted several times on X since Friday with photos and contact information for those still missing.
