Special Weather Statement issued June 7 at 9:40AM MDT by NWS El Paso Tx/Santa Teresa NM The first summer heat wave is here with many lowland locations expected to see 100 degrees for the first time this season either today or Monday. Highs will increase further by mid-week, topping out around 105, and heat advisories may be needed. After Thursday, there is uncertainty on whether the heat wave will continue and intensify or if some relief will arrive. People tend to be most vulnerable to heat early in the season. Be sure to drink plenty of water. Shift outdoor work and activities to early in the morning or later in the evening. Wear a hat, loose fitting clothing, and sun screen. Avoid alcohol, and become familiar with the symptoms of heat exhaustion and heat stroke. Heat Stroke is a medical emergency. Call 9-1-1 if someone is showing signs of heat stroke.
