Now’s the time to make sure your air conditioning is good working order because temperatures are expected soar well past 100 degrees this weekend.
The National Weather Service is forecasting highs of 110 on Sunday, 108 on Saturday and 103 on Friday (so we better enjoy today’s downright cool 95 degrees).
The culprit is a high pressure system over the region including Walla Walla to Boardman. The National Weather Service has issued a heat advisory warning in effect now through Sunday. Folks are urged to stay indoors as much as possible and keep hydrated to prevent heat-induced illnesses.
