Triple Digit Temperatures Headed For Amarillo, Texas Next Week

We've been pretty fortunate this summer. We haven't had that many days of brutal heat and there's been enough rain to make scheduling a trip to Palo Duro Canyon a gamble. That's all coming to an end, though. According to the National Weather Service In Amarillo, those triple-digit days are finally coming for us.

In Amarillo, our chances for temps over 99 degrees don't really kick in until Monday. According to the NWS, we have a 75% chance of seeing temps hit the triple digits starting Monday and continuing through Wednesday. Thursday those chances decrease just a little bit, and then on Friday we're down to almost a 50% chance.

All we have to do, hopefully, is make it to Thursday and then we'll get some relief.

Stay Healthy And Take Care Of Yourself In The Heat

The heat is no joke in the Texas panhandle. They'll shut the trails down in Palo Duro Canyon over the heat just as quickly as they will over the rain. It can get dangerous in the panhandle when temps head for the stratosphere.

Drink a lot of water. Stay hydrated. Sports drinks are fun but aren't a substitute for good old H2O. If you're going to be outdoors, take breaks and find some shade to hang out in. Take care of yourself and hopefully we'll be back in the 80s soon.
