Here comes the heat just in time for the 4th of July Holiday. Temps are expected to reach the low 90s on July 5th but the humidity will be pretty high as well. This will create a heat index of 94° - 98° around Metro Detroit.
With the heat close to dangerous levels be sure to stay hydrated and seek shade often. Don't leave pets in the car without running A/C since it could be deadly for them.
