The Valley is experiencing triple-digit heat and rising humidity. A recent plume of Saharan dust has been affecting the area, but it is expected to leave, resulting in clearer skies by Thursday afternoon. Computer models indicate that more Saharan dust will return to the Valley over the weekend and into early next week.

For now, residents can expect a brief respite from the dust. Further information on the weather conditions and forecast can be found through ValleyCentral, the local news source covering the McAllen, TX area.
