Why this matters in Laredo News
The remnants of Tropical Storm Bertha bringing a chance of showers to Laredo overnight will be a welcome relief to residents who have been dealing with the intense summer heat. As the upper level wave moves away to the west on Friday, the return of sunny afternoons will likely be met with a mix of appreciation for the brief respite and concern about the impending heat. With temperatures expected to drop only slightly to near 100 degrees on Friday and Saturday, the city's outdoor workers and vulnerable populations will still need to take precautions to stay safe. As the heat index is expected to rise again next week, the city's public safety officials will be keeping a close eye on the situation to ensure that residents have access to cooling centers and other resources to help them cope with the extreme temperatures.
