The first warm up for summer is expected this weekend with triple digits expected for West Side Valleys. There will be a moderate risk for heat related illnesses during this time for areas away from the immediate coast. This means this level of heat affects most individuals sensitive to heat, but especially those without effective cooling and/or adequate hydration. Considering this will be the warmest temperatures of the year so far, many folks aren’t used to this kind of heat yet. Take it easy out there this weekend, and remember that area waterways are still cold! Temperatures will trend cooler from Tuesday onward.
With warmer temperatures on the way, it’s good to remember that area waterways remain cold and rivers are swift. Wear a life jacket, limit time in cold water, never swim alone and have a flotation device that can be thrown to someone in need.
