Boston Mayor Walsh Issues Heat Advisory

Boston Mayor Marty Walsh is asking residents to take proper precautions with temperatures forecasted to be in the 90s through the end of Wednesday.

“As this summer comes to a close, we are expecting rising temperatures over the next couples of days,” said Mayor Walsh. “As we work to monitor the rising temperatures, to keep all of our residents and visitors safe, we ask the public to continue being vigilant - look after a neighbor, be it someone outdoors, or someone next door.”

A heat emergency can be declared in the city if temperatures reach 90 degrees or higher for three or more consecutive days.

Residents can sign up for Alert Boston, the city’s emergency notification system, to receive emergency alerts by phone, email or text.
