       affect your health June 13, 2026

       “As temperatures and humidity rise this weekend into next week,
       a greater threat of *heat-related illnesses* with prolonged
       outdoor exposure is forecast across urban areas,” the National
       Weather Service wrote on X Friday. The hotter it is, the higher
       the risk for blistering rashes, painful sunburns, muscle cramps
       and more severe heat-related illnesses, especially as people
       travel, hit the beach and pool, and gather for FIFA World Cup
       watch parties and activities, including Monday’s highly
       anticipated match at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens.
       “It’s going to be one of the hottest World Cup host cities, and
       there’s no air conditioning,” Jenna Lamb, U.S. director of Where
       Football Lives, a campaign drawing attention to the threats heat
       and extreme weather events pose to the sport, told the Miami
       Herald.
       Infants and kids younger than 4, people 65 and older, pregnant
       women, and people with certain medical conditions or who take
       certain medications are typically at higher risk for heat
       exhaustion and heat stroke, experts say. But it can happen to
       anyone, especially in Florida, which typically leads the nation
       in the number of reported heat-related illnesses.
       What temperature can cause heat stroke?
       The highest risk of developing heat stroke is when feel-like
       temperatures are more than 90 degrees, Dr. Bilal Bangash, a
       pulmonary and critical care physician at Bayhealth in Dover,
       Delaware, told the American Medical Association in a blog post.
       South Florida’s actual temperature for the weekend and through
       the rest of the upcoming week is forecast to have temperatures
       as high as the low 90s. Forecasters say feel-like temperatures
       could climb to over 100.
