What are electrolytes and do we really need them? If you follow health content on social media, chances are you've seen wellness influencers mixing up colourful electrolyte drinks promising better hydration, energy, and focus. But what exactly are electrolytes? These essential minerals, including sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium, and chloride, play a vital role in maintaining fluid balance, supporting nerve and muscle function, and keeping your body operating at its best. During hot weather or intense workouts, we naturally lose electrolytes through sweat, and if they're not replenished, symptoms like headaches, fatigue, and muscle cramps can kick in.

Epicore's Connected Hydration platform1 is the first smart wearable solution in the market that helps workers proactively manage their hydration and recovery using sweat-sensing technology.

Some storms may be capable of producing damaging straight-line wind gusts and possibly a brief, weak spin-up tornado. We will be drier by this afternoon, with temperatures surging into the mid to upper 80s. It is still going to be another hot and muggy day under a mixture of sun and clouds. Be sure to hydrate and drink plenty of water for all outdoor activities, especially if you are headed out for the PGA Championship at Quail Hollow Club. An isolated shower or storm can't be ruled out later this afternoon and evening, but most should remain dry after the morning showers. We will be mostly clear tonight, with temperatures falling back into the mid-60s, remaining humid! It will be a little less humid for Sunday, but still toasty. High temperatures will range anywhere between the low to mid 80s to end out the weekend. While most will be dry on Sunday, a shower chance is possible along and south of I-85.
