Typical summer weather continues across Texas this week, with daily storm chances and highs near 90°F. Meanwhile, the National Hurricane Center is monitoring a tropical disturbance in the Atlantic, though it's not expected to impact the U.S.

This week, the weather is expected to settle into a typical late-June pattern, with showers and thunderstorms occurring daily until Friday. High temperatures will remain around 90°F, but the heat index is expected to rise to 100°F or higher in the afternoon.
There is a 50% chance of showers and storms this afternoon, mainly in the afternoon. It will rain sometimes, but mostly be sunny, and the southeast winds will be about 10 mph. A random shower or storm could last until 7 p.m. tonight, with a 10% chance of rain or snow. Tonight's low temperature is expected to be around 78°F, with light southeast winds.
Aside from a few isolated downpours each day, the National Weather Service predicts no general severe weather. Temperatures and the amount of rain that falls will depend on how close the storms are, but nighttime lows will stay in the upper 70s.
The National Hurricane Center is keeping an eye on a small area of scattered showers and thunderstorms southeast of Bermuda in the Atlantic. Slow growth is still possible, but formation is unlikely, and the system is expected to move away from the U.S. mainland.
Texas should not be affected, but meteorologists will keep a close eye on the situation in case conditions change.

Surveillance rarely begins with governments. It begins with ordinary systems that quietly collect data because it is convenient and monetize it because it is profitable. As tracking becomes embedded into everyday software, protecting privacy now depends on infrastructure, not just promises.
