Please use caution through tomorrow by drinking extra water and taking frequent breaks from temperatures that will feel like triple digits today and tomorrow.
ACTIVE NWS ALERTS:
AIR QUALITY ALERT until 11 p.m.
HEAT ADVISORY until 10 p.m. Thursday
This latest round of extreme heat is only here for two days, but these are two days you do not want to overexert yourself outdoors! In addition to heat advisories through tomorrow, there is reduced air quality. Those with respiratory or heart-related illnesses will be most impacted. That said, everyone should be careful in this type of heat and humidity.
On top of the heat, there is and isolated shower or thunderstorm chance through tomorrow. We do not need any more rain coming off of flooding from earlier in the week! While this will not be widespread and the severe storm chances are low, just have an umbrella with you and check the News 12 app for any updates on rain or thunderstorm chances through tomorrow.
BIG IMPROVEMENTS COMING!
Friday is trending a lot nicer and the humidity is dropping even lower for Saturday! See more about that and a look into next week below.
Have a great Wednesday!
