Summary
Texas state parks are facing extreme heat this week—with temps hitting the 90s and heat indexes soaring over 100—making this holiday weekend a critical time to plan smart. Officials urge visitors to stay hydrated, check if pavement or trails are too hot for their own hands (if it’s too hot for you, it’s too hot for pets), and remember: last year, 169 heat-related incidents occurred, including six involving pets. Hikers should pack extra water, hit trails early or late, and always share their itinerary—cell service can be unreliable. Simple steps can keep everyone, including furry friends, safe and enjoying Texas’s outdoors. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
