When will Memphis heat wave break? 'Dangerous heat' will continue next week. 5 ways to stay cool
The midsummer heat is in full effect as Memphis and the Mid-South have been placed under a heat advisory with dangerous heat indices expected through next Thursday, according to the National Weather Service Memphis. "This heat is no joke, Mid-South," said a July 23 post from the weather service said on X. "Due to minimal nighttime cooling, the Heat Advisory and Extreme Heat Warning will continue through the overnight hours and into Thursday evening. Things may cool a degree or two this weekend, but long term forecasts keep our area hot and humid." While the weekend will see moderate heat, it is expected to intensify through the middle of next week. The weather service is warning of dangerous heat indices of 109 to 116 net Tuesday and Wednesday. "The heat wave will finally break by next Friday, with peak heat indices generally below 100," the weather service said. Due to the high temperatures, it's important to know what precautions to take in order to stay cool and safe throughout the day. Here's five things to know in order to protect yourself from the heat. Limit sun exposure If you are preparing to brace the heat, it's important to avoid direct sunlight during peak hours of the day between, 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when the sun's rays are the strongest, according to the CDC. Make sure that you are taking breaks when working outdoors and finding shade, or getting air conditioning indoors, if needed. Staying hydrated Hydration is of utmost importance during extreme cases of heat. The NWS advises to drink plenty of water consistently throughout the day, even if you're not thirsty. Carry a water bottle with you if you're running errands. Be mindful of children and pets It is imperative that you do not leave your children and pets in a hot vehicle. According to NWS, infants and small children are "high vulnerable to heat-related illnesses or death." Make sure to check your vehicle for your little ones or furry friends before exiting. This ensures the safety of everyone. Wear loose-fitting clothing During times of excessive heat, the NWS recommends people to "dress for the heat" by wearing loose-fitting and light-colored clothing. This attire allows the body to stay cool. Wear sunscreen If you are enjoying outdoor festivities, make sure to apply sunscreen to your body. The sun's rays are dangerous and can penetrate and damage your skin in less than 15 minutes, according to the NWS. Apply an SPF 50 every two hours to further protect your skin. The CDC recommends also wearing hats to protect the face and neck area.

Corn and Soybeans Head for Weekly Losses as US Weather Stays Wet
(Bloomberg) -- Crop futures were on track for a weekly decline as weather outlooks called for more rain in the US Midwest, boosting yield prospects at a time when investors were already bearish. Trump Awards $1.26 Billion Contract to Build Biggest Immigrant Detention Center in US The High Costs of Trump's 'Big Beautiful' New Car Loan Deduction Can This Bridge Ease the Troubled US-Canadian Relationship? Salt Lake City Turns Winter Olympic Bid Into Statewide Bond Boom Trump Administration Sues NYC Over Sanctuary City Policy A slow-moving cold front in the region Friday helped to bring cooler temperatures, according to the US Department of Agriculture's daily outlook. 'Heavy showers and thunderstorms along the front are maintaining favorable moisture supplies for corn and soybeans in the central Corn Belt,' the agency said. Heat earlier this week was linked to 'corn sweat,' when plants release moisture in the atmosphere that contribute to humidity. Over half the crop is throwing threads of silk as part of the yield-determining pollination process, while corn's national ratings of 74% 'good or excellent' are the best for this time of year since 2016. The favorable weather is keeping some investors on the sidelines, with light trading volumes on the Chicago exchange. 'Limited volume tells us that the market is comfortable with the current situation,' said StoneX risk management consultant Matt Campbell, adding that supplies are adequate and there's no need to change prices. Still, some buyers were taking advantage — the USDA reported daily export sales of both corn and soybeans to Mexico. In other markets, MIAX spring wheat futures were little changed one day after an annual crop tour found yield potential below USDA's estimate in North Dakota, the biggest grower.
