Virginia, we're at your (all things climate) service! 🫡
As Virginia faces rising climate risks, @GeorgeMasonU College of Science is taking on a new statewide role. The new State Climate Office will be housed at @VirginiaClimate, expanding climate data and services across the Commonwealth. 🔗 science.gmu.edu/news/virginia-… #ClimateScience
Huge thank you to our wonderful team, collaborators, and community for their dedication and support. Stay tuned for more details to come soon!
Big news: The Virginia Climate Center will be hosting the newly revived Virginia State Climate Office! 👏 We look forward to providing Virginians with a long awaited, centralized weather & climate resource that promotes the resiliency of our Commonwealth. richmond.com/news/state-reg…
Extreme heat is not always an invite for fun in the sun. Stay safe and cool this holiday weekend!
Many localities across the Commonwealth open cooling centers during times of extreme heat. If you or someone you know needs relief from the current heatwave, the link below provides locations & contact information for places offering an air-conditioned place to cool off and rest.
Find your local cooling center here: search.211virginia.org/search?query=T…
This includes the elderly, young children, adults on certain medications like antidepressants, and those without access to AC. If you're planning on celebrating America's 250th this weekend, read through the heat safety tips in this thread and consider an indoor celebration.
The heat index will be reaching 110° or more in many parts of VA this week, even the holiday weekend. This combined intense heat and humidity spells dangerous conditions, especially for those who are at particular risk. 🔽
💧 Drink plenty of fluids even if you don't feel thirsty 🏃 Schedule outdoor activities carefully 👕 Wear loose, lightweight, light-colored clothing and sunscreen 🚿 Take cool showers or baths to cool down 👇
Heat is still the deadliest weather hazard. If you feel some of the symptoms in the graphic when exposed to the head, find a cool spot to take a rest.
Virginia will be experiencing a strong heatwave this week with real feel temps of over 100°. Brush up on how to spot heat illness in yourself & others. Heat stroke is a medical emergency and knowing the early warning signs can be lifesaving.
Stay tuned as we share tips on how to stay safe and cool throughout this week's dangerous heat!
