(Washington, DC) — The D.C. region continues to bake in the hot temperatures and humidity prompting officials to declare a Heat Advisory until this evening. Weather forecasters say parts of the region will experience temperatures in the upper 90s, and combined with the humidity, it will feel more like 105 degrees. Health officials are once again advising residents to stay indoors as a way to beat the heat. Officials say if you have to go out, you should get out the door early or later in the day once the sun begins to set. Residents are being asked to check in on elderly neighbors to make sure they are coping with the heat and make certain they are keeping cool with air-conditioning or a fan. Officials caution if you are using a fan, windows should remain open in order to help circulate air in the home.
