Description

An extreme heat wave is bearing down on the state, with dangerously high temps hitting 90 by Tuesday and soaring over 100 by Thursday and Friday—feeling like 111 due to the heat index. The National Weather Service is sounding the alarm: stay hydrated, seek air-conditioned spaces, and check on vulnerable neighbors. Heat stroke symptoms include confusion and slurred speech—potentially fatal if untreated. Never leave kids or pets in cars. Governor Lamont has activated the Extreme Hot Weather Protocol, opening cooling centers statewide. Find them at 211ct.org or by calling 211. This heat wave hits hardest for infants, seniors, and those with health conditions or extra weight—stay safe and use the resources available.
