Blistering sun and July heat and humidity will provide challenges for recovery and cleanup efforts in the aftermath of the Guadalupe River flood disaster, AccuWeather meteorologists say.

While a break from the rain is wanted and underway, the sun and heat can be brutal during July, and the days ahead will be no exception, even though conditions will be fairly typical for the time of the year.

The already high summertime temperatures, combined with intense sunshine, humidity levels and a lack of breeze, will push AccuWeather RealFeel® Temperatures to near 100 F or higher during the midday and afternoon hours most days into next week.

The climate around the Texas Hill Country northwest of San Antonio is not as humid as areas near the Gulf, such as Houston or Corpus Christi, Texas, nor is it as dry as El Paso or Amarillo, Texas.

However, it's humid enough when combined with heat on a given summer day to pose significant challenges for those partaking in the agonizing manual labor of finding the many dozens still missing.
