DALLAS — Most of North Texas, including Dallas, Tarrant and Collin counties, is under a heat advisory Saturday as temperatures soar — and severe storms may also be in the forecast.
The National Weather Service in Fort Worth said the heat index — a measure that incorporates the temperature and the humidity — could reach 105 to 115 degrees Saturday.
The heat advisory, which lasts until 8 p.m. Sunday, urges people to take precautions when spending time outdoors. Counties to the southeast of Dallas-Fort Worth care under an excessive heat warning, which says to expect “dangerously hot conditions.”
