As the current heatwave continues, Californians are encouraged to take precautions to stay cool as most areas likely won’t see relief until early next week.
On July 11, Governor Gavin Newsom launched Heat Ready CA, one of the nation’s first statewide multi-ethnic awareness and education campaigns designed to keep Californians safe during extreme heat.
The Kern County Public Health Services Department urges residents to protect themselves from the heat as triple-digit temperatures are expected for the first time this year.
