Heat Advisory Issued for Lexington

Heat Advisory Issued for Lexington
Emily Fay
July 6, 2022

The combination of temperatures well into the 90s and high humidity will result in dangerous heat for today. Excessive Heat Warning in effect for most of the region where heat index values up to 111° will be possible. A heat advisory has been issued for Lexington. Take extra precautions today if you work or spend an extended amount of time outside. Drink plenty of fluids, stay out of the sun, and take frequent breaks in shaded or air-conditioned environments.

Click here for our most up-to-date resources for shelters and heat-related resources. These may change as more agencies are able to provide additional hours and staffing. We encourage you to print just the copies needed for that day in case a service is added or information is edited.

LFUCG will announce any additional cooling centers as they are open.

In addition to the heat, there is another conditional threat for strong to severe storms today. Any storms that do develop will have the potential to produce gusty winds, frequent lightning, and brief heavy rainfall.

Dangerous heat and additional storm chances continue for tomorrow as well.
