...Several Days of Heat Indices Near or In Excess of 100F Next
Week...
Temperatures warming into the 90s will combine with an
increasingly humid airmass to produce several consecutive days of
heat indices above 100 for portions of the area from Sunday to
Thursday. Overnight lows are forecast to be in the 70s for most
locations from Monday night through Thursday night, and this lack
of nighttime heat relief will further increase the risk of heat
impacts.
Plan now for next week`s anticipated heat by checking that your
air conditioning and fans are in good working order. Know the
signs of heat illness and practice heat safety by staying
hydrated. Check in on people without air conditioning, as well as
any elderly relatives and neighbors. Never leave children or
animals in an unattended vehicle, as car interiors can reach
deadly temperatures in a matter of minutes.

...Several Days of Heat Indices Near or In Excess of 100F Late
This Weekend and Into Early Next Week...
Strong high pressure at the surface and aloft will build into the
area this weekend and continue into next week. Temperatures will
warm into the upper 80s and lower 90s this weekend with lower 90s
becoming more common next week. Oppressive humidity values will
also be seen across the area as dewpoints warm into the mid-upper
70s. The combination of warm temperatures and high humidity will
result in afternoon heat index readings reaching the upper 90s and
lower 100s.
Practice heat safety by staying hydrated and checking on people
without air conditioning. Know the signs of heat illness, and
never leave children or animals in an unattended vehicle.
