Above normal temperatures will continue across the region today, with highs in the mid to upper 90s. Peak heat index values will range from 100 to 105 degrees so, even though no Heat Advisory is in effect, those having to spend a lot of time outside should drink plenty of water and consider taking breaks in the shade or inside an air conditioned building. Otherwise, no hazardous weather is expected at this time. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Saturday through Thursday. Upper level ridging will keep quiet conditions across the region through the weekend. Although no hazardous weather is expected, the ridge will allow for above normal temperatures to continue for most areas through early next week, with highs in the low to mid 90s. Despite the warm temperatures, heat index values should continue to stay below Heat Advisory criteria. At least slight thunderstorm chances will return to the region Monday through Wednesday, but the potential for severe weather is low at this time. .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT... Spotter activation is not expected at this time. $$ 50
