White Lake Under Heat Advisory

With temperatures expected to climb into the 90s today and tomorrow, White Lake and all of the surrounding areas are under a heat advisory until midnight Wednesday.

Heat index values will range from 95 -100 today and 93-98 Wednesday. Overnight low temperatures will only drop to the low 70s, providing little relief from the daytime heat, the National Weather Service reported this morning.

Strenuous outdoor activity could lead to heat injuries such as heat stroke, heat exhaustion or heat cramps.

People prone to heat stress – such as the very young, the elderly and those with underlying health conditions – could suffer, especially where no shade or air conditioning is available.

What to do? Drink plenty of fluids, stay in an air-conditioned room and stay out of the sun. Children and pets should never be left unattended in vehicles under any circumstances. And it's a good idea to check on relatives and neighbors periodically.
