    Dangerous and record-breaking heat will continue across the Intermountain West and North-Central U.S. through at least midweek, with heat persisting beyond next weekend as well. Be sure to follow proper heat safety tips!
    Extreme Heat Through Midweek
The first widespread significant heat wave of summer for the Intermountain West through the Northern Plains and Upper Great Lakes is expected to impact the region today, peaking in intensity through at least Tuesday. Widespread high temperatures of 95-105 degrees are expected, with local maxima above 110 degrees possible. Even for mid-July, this heat is expected to be exceptionally rare for some locations and produce numerous daily, monthly, and some all-time high temperature records.


Prolonged and Accumulated Heat Stress
Extremely hot daytime highs combined with potentially record-warm lows will result in increasing heat stress over the next several days due to limited relief, leading to widespread Major to locally Extreme HeatRisk. This heat will quickly become dangerous to anyone without adequate cooling or hydration.

    Extremely hot daytime highs combined with potentially record-warm overnight lows will result in increasing heat stress, leading to widespread major to locally extreme HeatRisk. This heatwave will quickly become dangerous to anyone without adequate cooling or hydration.
    Extreme Heat: Why is extreme heat so dangerous? Heat becomes especially dangerous if it lingers for more than one day. Hot days and warm nights don’t give our bodies time to cool down. Heat islands can intensify extreme hot weather, which can cause breathing problems, heat cramps, heat stroke, and may lead to illness or even death. What can you do? Check on your friends, family and neighbors during heat waves. Wear light, loose-fitting clothing and drink water often. Don't wait until you are thirsty. Avoid unnecessary hard work or activities if you are outside or in a building without air-conditioning. Stay in an air-conditioned area. Air conditioning is the strongest protective factor against heat-related illness.

    Most flood fatalities occur in vehicles, and it only takes 12 inches of water to sweep a car away. Sometimes, the difference between life and death is small decisions. weather.gov/safety/flood
    Small Decisions can have a big impact: Flooding. 1) Turn around and don't drive through a flooded roadway. 2) Don't drive around barricades. 3) Delay travel until conditions improve. Don't let a bad decision be your last.
