Winds are active, blowing at 15 mph with gusts reaching as high as 31 mph, helping to stir the atmosphere but not enough to fully alleviate the sticky conditions.

Safety and Outlook

With heat index values climbing into the low 100s, it is crucial to stay hydrated and limit midday exertion. The combination of high temperatures and humidity can lead to heat-related illnesses quickly. While there are no active National Weather Service alerts or warnings in effect for Sherman, the oppressive heat requires caution. Residents should check on neighbors and ensure pets have access to cool water and shade.
