Austin weather: Temps in the triple digits Wednesday, but it might not feel like it

Austin weather: Heat index to stay below 100°

Temperatures will be in the triple digits all week, but it might not feel like it Wednesday. Zack Shields explains why and shows us whether Hurricane Idalia will impact our weather in his full forecast.

AUSTIN, Texas - After the coolest morning since mid-June we join the triple-digit club briefly this afternoon.

Sunshine for the win again today with no signs of rain. The humidity will be nice and low so feels-like temps will stay in the 90s.

With the clear and dry conditions sticking around we will drop into the 60s and 70s again Thursday morning.

Enjoy because the moisture will return this weekend. Will it just make it feel hotter or will it turn into a chance of rain for us?
