What the National Weather Service wrote

A three year old boy was found dead in a family vehicle in the Sand Hills area of Guadalupe County. The high temperature was around 90 degrees and the heat index was between 95 and 97.

The wider storm

A 500mb ridge of high pressure was building over Texas after a mesoscale convective system had produced widespread rain across South Central Texas. This caused the low level winds to turn around to the southeast and brought a warm, moist air mass over the region. High temperatures climbed to near 90 and the dew point temperatures near 70 resulting in heat indices in the middle 90s.
