## Resource

The Pacific Northwest braces for a brutal heat wave with temps soaring into the 90s, possibly hitting 100°F, starting Tuesday and lasting through Wednesday. A high-pressure dome is locking in the heat, with a chance to break a daily record — 98°F, set in 2004. Overnight lows stay dangerously warm, in the 60s to 70s. Stay hydrated, check on seniors and pets, and prepare for a dry spell that’s already stretched to 20 days without rain — relief may arrive Thursday, but not before.
