In the wake of the heat wave in the western region of the U.S., Oregon received an excessive heat warning, as the state would be hit by a three-day extreme temperature from Saturday to Monday. The warning was announced by the Tillamook County Emergency Management two days before the onset of the extreme temperature in the state.

The heat wave was expected to start on Saturday around 10 in the morning Monday, 11 in the evening. Oregon residents would experience "dangerously" hot conditions with temperatures ranging from the mid 90s to low 100s. Meanwhile, at night, the temperature was expected to be in the mid-60s to low 70s.

Excessive Heat Warning Issued to Oregon Over Heatwave

Several areas in Oregon would experience the extreme heat that is expected to start on Saturday. The areas would be the Central Coast range of Western Oregon, Coast Range of Northwest Oregon, and Northern Oregon Cascades and Foothills. Cascade and Cascade Foothills in Lane County would also experience extreme heat.

Because of the heat wave, the agency also noted that individuals who work or participate in outdoor activities would have a greater risk to heat-related illnesses. Furthermore, heat stress may also be experienced due to the hot daytime temperatures and warm, overnight lows. These phenomena can also result in high heat risk.

Apart from Oregon, other areas in Washington would also experience the heat wave over the weekend. Tri-Cities, Mid-Columbia area, Yak Trike News reported, are having temperatures ranging from 108 to 114. Yakima Valley would also experience extreme temperatures ranging from 105 to 111. Meanwhile, the Ellensburg area is expected to have temperatures ranging from 98 to 104.

Because of the extreme temperatures expected in these parts of Washington, an excessive heat warning was issued to the said areas starting Friday afternoon up to Thursday evening.

Aside from the heatwave warning, the agency also reminded the areas, such as Oregon, which would experience extreme temperatures, to drink plenty of water and stay in an air-conditioned room. The agency also underscored that "children and pets" should not be left inside a car without adult supervision "in any circumstances."

"Re-schedule strenuous activities to early morning or evening," said the Tillamook County Emergency Management. The agency also emphasized the importance of knowing the signs and symptoms of heatstroke, as well as wearing "lightweight and loose-fitting" clothing, if possible.

No Blackouts Despite Heatwave in the Northwest

Although Oregon and Washington would experience heat wave over the weekend, Portland General Electronics (PGE) vowed that there will be no power outage in the northwestern region of the U.S.

A spokesperson from the company clarified that there would be enough power to support areas in the northwest, highlighting that they did not find any indication that would be an issue for them.

PGE was known to have a plant in Oregon that was shut down in the previous year. The said move was applauded by environmentalists because the PGE plant in the state converts coal into electricity.
