Heat Safety Tips

Extreme Heat Warnings have been issued for multiple locations across the area through Thursday. Temperatures will heat up further over the next few days, peaking around 6-8° above normal on Thursday. Widespread moderate HeatRisk and localized areas of major HeatRisk are expected through Thursday.

Increasing winds, low humidity levels, and very receptive fuels will combine Friday and Saturday resulting in a very high fire danger for the Lower Colorado River valley, as well as Tonto National Forest and Gila County. A Fire Weather Watch has been issued for these locations where ongoing fires or new starts could grow out of control.

Temperatures peak at 6-8° above normal on through mid-week, resulting in widespread moderate HeatRisk with areas of major HeatRisk. Additionally, Extreme Heat Warnings are in effect across portions of the area through Thursday. An increase in moisture may lead to isolated thunderstorm activity across the AZ higher terrain for the middle to latter half of the week.

Temperatures will gradually increase this week, peaking on Thursday at 6-10° above normal. This will result in widespread Moderate HeatRisk with areas of Major HeatRisk developing for the end of the workweek. Never underestimate the heat, and make plans accordingly. Remember to drink plenty of water and take breaks in air conditioning.
