Recognize Heat Related Illness Symptoms

Hot, dry, and breezy conditions are expected to continue throughout the day today, resulting in an elevated fire threat for much of North Texas. Temperatures are expected to peak at the century mark or just above, and combined with very dry ground conditions and winds gusting up to 20-25 miles per hour, there is an increased threat for grassfires. Remember to avoid outdoor burning, secure tow chains, and NEVER toss lit cigarettes.

Warm temperatures are expected to continue, with heat indices consistently in the 104-108 range. With minimal precipitation chances upcoming, this hot, dry pattern is expected to continue for the next 3-5 days.

Hot, dry, and breezy conditions will continue through the weekend increasing the threat for wildfire activity across the region. Help prevent wildfires by knowing what NOT to do and how to be prepared.

Recognize heat related illness symptoms by knowing what happens to the body when exposed to extended periods of hot temperatures. Act fast and move to a cooler area and seek medical help if symptoms don't improve.
