A Sizzling Heat Wave Is Taking Over Montana, Bringing Dangers And Health Risks
Daytime highs of 100 degrees or more is now possible for dozens of counties in Montana on Tuesday and Wednesday. Dangerously hot temps along with low humidity and some wind make for uncertain fire conditions, too.
There are actually three concerns here for such hot daytime temperatures: health issues from overheating, pressure on fish and wildlife, and fire danger. (Check those Hoot Owl restrictions on rivers if you’re fishing!)
The forecast for the areas of concern is not the same – except for “it’s going to be hot”. We’ve got details broken down by region. Health concerns are at the top of the list with these weather advisories. Heat Stroke is an emergency, so take good care.
“There are a few stages of heat injury, and heatstroke is the most serious. It can happen if body temperature rises to 104 F (40 C) or higher.” (Mayo Clinic)
