Heat Advisory continues

A Heat Advisory has been issued for all of North Texas from through Friday (and likely for the weekend).

High temperatures will range from 102 to 105 with an afternoon heat index of 105 to 110.

This is dangerous heat. Use caution and stay hydrated. Make sure you check on your elderly loved ones and neighbors. Also, make sure your pets are protected from the heat.

Take extra precautions if you work or spend time outside. When possible reschedule strenuous activities to early morning or evening. Know the signs and symptoms of heat exhaustion and heatstroke. Wear lightweight and loose-fitting clothing when possible. To reduce risk during outdoor work, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration recommends scheduling frequent rest breaks in shaded or air-conditioned environments. Anyone overcome by heat should be moved to a cool and shaded location. Heatstroke is an emergency! Call 911. The CDC has more here on heat-related illnesses.
