Hello, Friday! Chelsea here.

I hope you all had a fantastic week. As we head into such a busy and exciting weekend, I wanted to take a minute to talk about the upcoming weather. It’s going to get very, very warm early next week, so enjoy these last couple of days and take the opportunity to prepare for next week. The heat dome is coming whether we like it or not. Using this time to get ready for it seems like a no-brainer.
