We’re in the ‘Dog Days’ of Summer

Share

The dog days of summer are here.

That’s the message from Chris Miller at the National Weather Service in Lincoln. Heat and humidity are settling in over the area this week and Miller says August will offer more of the same. He urges caution if you’re doing anything out in this heat.

As we transition to August, Miller says the fluctuations of temperatures are going to go away and we’re going to remain in this hot weather pattern with rainfall that will be, if anything, normal for this time of the year.

Daytime highs this week will hover around 90-degrees with minimal chances of rain.
