Heat Wave Alert: Stay Safe This Week

This week starts off with perfect, low-humidity sunshine — enjoy it while you can. But brace yourself: a classic summer pattern is rolling in, bringing afternoon thunderstorms and a dangerous heat wave. With heat being the top weather-related killer in the U.S., heat advisories are expected this weekend and into next week, especially in the Piedmont Triad. Don’t forget the wet bulb globe temperature — a more accurate measure of heat stress — which will be in the moderate to high range. Stay hydrated, check on your neighbors, especially the young and elderly. Safety first. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
