    A statewide drought watch has been declared. Do your part by reducing nonessential water use — hold off on watering the lawn and opt for non-drinkable water on grass and turf fields when you're able.

    ⚠️ @MattMeyerDE has declared a statewide drought watch due to ongoing dry conditions. We’re asking Delawareans to voluntarily reduce nonessential water use. Limit lawn watering and use non-drinkable water on lawns and turf fields when possible.news.delaware.gov/2026/06/03/gov…
    Three speech bubble signs with exclamation marks at the top indicate a drought watch. The messages read "Drought Watch" in English, "Precaución por Sequía" in Spanish, and a third text "Pral Ginyin Sechres." Each sign includes the Delaware Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control logo at the bottom.

    Mid-90s heat continues in Delaware today. @DelawareEMA's message is worth repeating: hydrate, take breaks, and never leave kids or pets in a parked car.

    Temps today will climb as high as the mid to high 90's today as we see warmer temperatures continue. Continue to make a point to hydrate and take frequent breaks. If you have anywhere to be, do not leave young children or pets in your vehicles.
