Temperatures heat up even more into Wednesday... But humidity ramps up further into late-week and the upcoming weekend, so heat index values will likely be even hotter! Stay cool and stay hydrated!! The #ARStormTeam will be here to keep you updated. #ARwx

ARE YOU HYDRATED ENOUGH?💧 I know this isn't the most comfortable conversation to have... But this info could save your life In this heat! A good indicator? Take note when you use the restroom. The clearer your urine, the better. If it’s dark yellow or amber color, you need to…

Dangerous heat remains the big story as we head through the week ahead. Even with a subtle drop in humidity, it drives temperatures high enough that heat index readings will still be at dangerous levels. Stay hydrated! #ARwx
