...EXCESSIVE HEAT WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 8 PM EDT
FRIDAY...

* WHAT...Dangerously hot conditions with peak afternoon heat
  index values between 95 and 105 expected throughout the week,
  especially Thursday and Friday. Low temperatures in the 70s at
  night will provide little relief from the heat.

* WHERE...Portions of northern Indiana and northwest Ohio.

* WHEN...Until 8 PM EDT Friday.

* IMPACTS...Extreme heat and humidity will significantly
  increase the potential for heat related illnesses,
  particularly for those working or participating in outdoor
  activities.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Heat stress increases with the number of
  consecutive hot days. While heat indices may be slightly lower
  today because of cloud cover and chances for showers and
  storms, hot conditions are forecast again for Wednesday
  through Saturday. The effects of heat are most impactful for
  more vulnerable urban populations.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Drink plenty of fluids, stay in an air-conditioned room, stay out
of the sun, and check up on relatives and neighbors. Young
children and pets should never be left unattended in vehicles
under any circumstances.

Take extra precautions if you work or spend time outside. When
possible reschedule strenuous activities to early morning or
evening. Know the signs and symptoms of heat exhaustion and heat
stroke. Wear lightweight and loose fitting clothing when
possible. To reduce risk during outdoor work, the Occupational
Safety and Health Administration recommends scheduling frequent
rest breaks in shaded or air conditioned environments. Anyone
overcome by heat should be moved to a cool and shaded location.
Heat stroke is an emergency! Call 9 1 1.
