0405L-SUNDAY OUTLOOK FROM GARFIELD COUNTY EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT-6/28/2020

1- WINDY, HUMID, AND HOT with the HEAT INDEX near 100 will make for a miserable day. If you plan on doing yardwork, be sure you hydrate yourself and take breaks. It isn’t that important that you hurt yourself just to get the yard done. Take a few precautions and you should be ok.

2-The FIRE DANGER is still around and with lessening rain chances, it will get worse, Please be careful using anything related to fire. As per fireworks, my Friday statement stated that it is illegal to fire them on any COUNTY OR LEASE ROAD. If you do and you start a fire, DON’T RUN AWAY, CALL 911 IMMEDIATELY so a response can be sent. Remember that your decision to fire them off could result in someone losing their home, crop, cattle, etc. Just follow the law and everything should be ok.

3- Here is your forecast from the NWS/NORMAN;

Sunday-Increasing clouds with a high near 94. Heat index values as high as 99. South winds 15 to 25 mph with gusts as high as 33 mph.

Sunday Night-Mostly cloudy with lows around 74. South winds 20 to 25 mph, with gusts as high as 29 mph.

HAVE A GREAT DAY!
