A record breaking day for Bakersfield with the heat! We are expecting 114! The hottest September day on record is 112 set September 3, 1955. Stay hydrated and take frequent breaks if working in this heat. Also think about your pets! Be sure they have shade and water!
Yikes! Hope everyone is staying cool! We will be near 106 on Monday with temps falling to around 100 by Friday. If working in this heat, make sure to take breaks and the most important thing is to stay hydrated. Start early before being out in the heat and then keep hydrating.
