Alerts and safety

There are no active NWS/NOAA weather alerts for Dallas. Even without an alert, this level of heat can be taxing, especially with the humidity. Drink water, take breaks in cooler places when possible, and limit strenuous outdoor activity if you can. Check on people who may have a harder time staying cool, and do not leave children or pets in parked vehicles.
