Hot Weather for the 4th !!

From the KRBC Weather Lab ....

No surprise !! Hot weather is on tap for the 4th of July in the Big Country. Daytime highs in the upper 90's, overnight lows in the mid 70's are forecast Friday through Sunday.

I'm leaving a slight chance for thunderstorms in the forecast each afternoon Sunday, Monday and Tuesday. A weak cold front will try to make its way into the area to give us a slight chance for storms.

Wind will be from the south, light at night, 10 to 20 in the afternoon over the next several days.

Observe the heat safety tips:
1) Drink Plenty of Water
2) Wear light colored, loose-fitting clothing
3) Make sure your pets have plenty of water
4) Wear sunscreen if in direct sunlight for an extended period of time
5) Limit outdoor work to mornings or very late evenings, if possible
