    A dangerous heat wave will impact the central & eastern U.S. starting Sun and continue through the Jul 4 weekend. Highs will be in the 90s-100s with heat indices of 100–110° (locally 115°). Warm nights will offer little relief. Stay hydrated, limit outdoor activity, and seek A/C.
    High temperatures in the 90s to low 100s will make for a significant heat wave across the central and eastern U.S. beginning on Sunday and lasting through next week. These hot temperatures combined with high humidity will lead to heat indices of 100-110 degrees, and locally as high as 115. Low temperatures only dropping into the 70s will provide little overnight relief.

Multiple days of Major to Extreme HeatRisk are forecast across the Mississippi and Ohio Valleys next week. These levels of heat mean health impacts become more likely in general, and may occur in ANYONE without adequate hydration or cooling.

High or moderate extreme heat risks cover much of the U.S. east of the Rockies July 4-5, with a broader slight risk through July 7 extending as far west as the Great Basin. Heat indices of 100-110 degrees are possible, and warm nights in the 70s-80s may limit relief over the holiday weekend.

Stay informed and take steps to protect yourself from heat related illnesses.

    If a wildfire threatens your area, stay informed of evacuation orders. Leave immediately when asked to avoid being caught in fire, smoke or road congestion. Have an emergency supply kit in your vehicle and know your evacuation route. More: weather.gov/safety/wildfire
    "Evacuating From Wildfires: Always stay aware of your environment. Leave when asked by your local officials. Take Action Immediately: Leave as soon as evacuation is recommended by fire officials to avoid being caught in fire, smoke or road congestion. A delay could cost your life! Take the initiative to stay informed and aware. Listen to your radio, TV, or alerts on your phone for announcements from law enforcements and emergency personnel. Cover up to protect against heat and flying embers. Wear long pants, a long sleeve shirt, heavy shoes/boots, cap, a face mask, goggles or glasses. Ensure your emergency supply kit is in your vehicle. Enact your evacuation plan that includes the route you'll take and designated emergency meeting location outside the fire or hazard area.

    To be ready to use RAPID, our teams came together last week in an exercise to discuss and practice ways to improve how Public Assistance is provided. This new approach cuts red tape and lets communities focus on recovery.
