Hot Car Safety

Hot temperatures will continue through Monday, resulting in a major risk for heat related illnesses during this time as this level of heat affects anyone without cooling/hydration. Find places to cool off – pools, lakes, misters, sprinklers, air conditioned buildings, shaded areas – anywhere to mitigate the effects of the heat. Coastal areas will be cooler, as will the higher mountains above 6000 feet.

An unstable monsoonal air mass will be present across the region through Wednesday, resulting in daily chances for thunderstorms as well as possible storms overnight. The focus for activity will be east of the Cascades and across northern California, but portions of Jackson and Josephine Counties could see storms as well. Storms will be capable of producing gusty winds, hail and perhaps new fire starts. If you have outdoor plans during this time, be sure to include a plan for where to go if a storm develops nearby. Avoid exposed areas like mountain summits, lakes, or large fields if caught in a storm. Seek shelter in a substantial building or hard topped vehicle. Wait 30 minutes after the last rumble of thunder before resuming activities.
