FORECAST

Looking ahead to next week, we might see temperatures hit the triple digits. A heat high is expected to build, and as the atmosphere dries out, it could push temperatures above 100°F. Make sure to stay hydrated and take breaks if you’re spending time outside!

For those involved in sports or outdoor activities, keep an eye on the wet bulb globe temperature, which is a key indicator of heat safety. Meteorologist Leah Rodriguez has provided insights on how schools use this measurement to determine if it’s safe to practice outside in the heat. Today, we might see those temperatures rise high enough to raise concerns.
