Dangerous Heat Conditions
A Heat Advisory is currently in effect for Aubrey, TX, signaling moderate severity conditions that require caution. The National Weather Service has also issued an Air Quality Alert, adding another layer of concern for local residents. As of this Wednesday afternoon, the air temperature stands at 95F, but the combination of heat and humidity makes it feel like 103F.
