Safety and Conditions

There are no active National Weather Service or NOAA weather alerts in effect for Celina at this time. However, the combination of high temperatures and significant humidity requires caution. Residents should stay hydrated and limit prolonged outdoor exertion during the hottest parts of the day. The muggy conditions can make the heat feel more intense than the actual air temperature suggests. Keep an eye on the slight chance of storms today, particularly before 7pm, though the overall risk remains low. As temperatures climb toward 91F tomorrow, continue to take precautions against heat-related illness. Ensure that pets and vulnerable neighbors have access to cool, shaded areas. The clear skies today will give way to partly sunny conditions tomorrow, but the humidity will remain a notable factor in how the heat is felt.
