00:02 Welcome back to AccuWeather Early, I'm Justin Patek.
00:07 And I'm Christina Schallhub,
00:08 and it's time for the best and worst weather of the day.
00:11 And so far this week, Justin,
00:12 I would say we're on pretty even footing,
00:14 so I really gotta work my hardest here.
00:16 I wanna pull ahead on this one, but that's just me.
00:18 Okay, let's go somewhere else where,
00:22 you know, we looked in the Northwest for a different reason,
00:25 of course, the last couple of days.
00:27 Today, look at this, the heat's relaxing.
00:29 We're falling back into the 80s,
00:31 still above the historical average,
00:33 but the key here, look at this,
00:34 ooh, back in the 70s down the road,
00:37 a far cry from those 90s.
00:39 Respect to Seattle, first of all, I love that city.
00:42 And it is getting better,
00:43 but you know what's just darn great today
00:46 is Nashville, Tennessee.
00:47 I have lived here, I will tell you,
00:49 in the summer it is like living on the surface of the sun.
00:53 It is so hot.
00:54 So an 85 degree day in August in Nashville,
00:59 you guys know Broadway's gonna be busy today.
01:01 Make sure you get out there nice and early.
01:02 I'm not just saying you should skip work or anything,
01:04 but it's gonna be busy.
01:05 Gorgeous day today, gorgeous day tomorrow,
01:07 gorgeous day on Saturday,
01:09 all three below the historical average high temperature
01:12 with plenty of sunshine.
01:13 What more could you ask for?
01:15 All right, here we go.
01:15 Quickly now to Houston, where the heat just does not
01:18 just wanna go away.
01:19 Records in jeopardy today as we work our way down the road.
01:22 But you know what?
01:23 Let's take a look at today.
01:24 We've got records here the next three days,
01:26 acubeather real field temperatures,
01:27 again, jumping back into the 100 and teens.
01:29 This is where we'd like to see a break.
01:31 - So I anticipated what you picked
01:33 and I anticipated incorrectly.
01:35 I went with Dallas because of the same reason.
01:38 It's gonna be 110 degrees today, 110 in Dallas.
01:42 We just got rid of the heat and all of a sudden
01:44 it is back in full swing.
01:46 So I think you got the worst weather, no hands,
01:48 or no question about it.
01:50 All right, producer Christian, what do you think?
01:52 Oh, producer Barry.
01:53 I get the win.
01:55 - All right.
01:56 - We'll see what happens next.
01:57 We'll be back.
01:58 (laughing)
