OXFORD - Environment Canada has issued a yellow warning for heat in Oxford County.
Officials say we could see daytime highs in the 30s over the next few days along with overnight lows in the low 20s. We're supposed to get the worst of it tomorrow with a high of 35, feeling like 42 with the humidity, and an overnight low of 23.
Make sure you drink lots of water and stay in a cool place whenever possible. It's also a good idea to close your blinds or shades, and you should open your windows if it's cooler outside than it is inside.
The heat warning should end Wednesday or Thursday evening, so make sure you drink lots of water in the meantime.
Southwestern Public Health also issued its own heat warning, advising residents in Oxford, Elgin and St. Thomas to protect themselves from heat related illness. Those who are the most vulnerable include older adults, young children, outdoor workers, and people experiencing homelessness who do not have access to shelter, proper clothing or food
