...WARMER THAN USUAL HIGH TEMPERATURES TODAY THROUGH FRIDAY...

Daytime high temperatures have reached 70 to 75 degrees
throughout this week, and will be warmest on Thursday.
Temperatures this warm, and for this long, happen about once per
year.

The long duration of warmer days may impact subsistence
activities like berry picking, fishing, and hunting. This could
also affect people who are extremely sensitive to heat (like
elders or infants), especially if they are unable to cool down or
stay hydrated.

Actions: Keep homes cool by closing curtains during the day and
opening windows at night. If outdoors, stay hydrated and dress in
lighter and looser clothing. Be alert to signs of heat stress in
yourself and others.
