Dallas-Fort Worth residents can expect hot temperatures and warm nights this week.
Juan Hernandez, National Weather Service meteorologist, said temperatures will be around 100 degrees through the middle of the week, with no chances of rain. The rest of the week will see a slight cooldown to the upper 90s.
“We’ve had heat all summer, but it’s still something that we have to be mindful of,” Hernandez said.
He cautioned residents to stay hydrated, take frequent breaks when outdoors and stay in the shade as much as possible.
