Southern Heat Wave
It will still feel like summer across the South this week.
An upper-level ridge of high pressure will strengthen over the South. This will allow high temperatures to soar into the 90s and lower 100s from the southern Plains into the Southeast, generally about 5 to 15 degrees above average for early September.
Daily record-high temperatures are expected at times this week. A few cities that could approach daily records this week include Atlanta; Jacksonville, Florida; Nashville, Tennessee; and New Orleans.
Naples, Florida, tied its all-time record-warm low temperature on Friday and Saturday, when the low only dipped to 85 degrees.
Vero Beach, Florida, tied its record for warmest high temperature for September with a high of 97 degrees on both Thursday and Friday. Orlando, Florida, tied its record for warmest low temperature for September with a low of 80 degrees on Thursday.
Several daily record highs were set on Friday, including in Austin, Texas, at Camp Mabry (103 degrees), Houston (99 degrees) and New Orleans (98 degrees). Daily record highs were also set on Saturday in Monroe, Louisiana (102 degrees), Houston (99 degrees – tie) and Miami (94 degrees). On Sunday, Austin, Texas, at Camp Mabry (102 degrees), New Orleans (99 degrees), Baton Rouge, Louisiana (98 degrees – tie), and Tallahassee, Florida (98 degrees – tie) tied or set new record highs for the date.
