...HOT AND HUMID CONDITIONS CONTINUE INTO THIS WEEKEND...

Hot and humid weather will prevail into this weekend over central and
southeast IL. The hottest days will be Friday and Saturday when
temperatures climb into the middle to upper 90s, and afternoon heat
index values peak near or above 100 degrees.

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.
