Heat advisory issued for Door, Kewaunee counties

Make sure you drink plenty of fluids, stay in an air-conditioned room, take proper precautions when working outdoors, stay out of the sun and check on your neighbors over the next 48 hours.

 

That is the advice from the National Weather Service after it issued a heat advisory for much of Wisconsin from 11 a.m. Monday through 9 p.m. Tuesday.

 

High temperatures could reach at least 95 degrees both Monday and Tuesday, with the heat index climbing above 100 degrees. Overnight temperatures will remain in the mid-70s, which could be uncomfortable for people without air conditioning.

 

The high on Wednesday could still reach 90 degrees before temperatures retreat into the upper 80s on Thursday and Friday.

 

During last week's stretch of extreme heat, officials in Door and Kewaunee counties opened cooling shelters for those in need. You can find more heat safety resources below.
