...HOT AND HUMID FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE WEEK...

Hot and humid weather will prevail for the next several days. The
hottest days will be Friday and Saturday when air temperatures climb
into the middle to upper 90s and afternoon heat index values peak at
100 to 105 degrees. A cold front will bring relief from the heat by
Sunday.

If working outside this week, be sure to drink plenty of water, wear
loose-fitting and light-colored clothing, and take frequent breaks
in air-conditioned locations. Be sure to check on those most
vulnerable to the heat...including children and the elderly. Provide
shade and fresh water for outdoor pets and livestock, and check the
backseat of your vehicle when transporting children.
