AUGUST 2014

Thursday, July 18, 2013

Another day of hot weather as the weather advisories keep coming.

THE HEAT & HUMIDITY OF THE PAST FEW DAYS WILL CONTINUE INTO FRIDAY.WITH DAYTIME HEAT INDICES TOPPING OUT FROM 95 TO 105 DEGREES.

 THE CUMULATIVE EFFECT OF SEVERAL DAYS IN A ROW OF HIGH HEAT INCREASES THE RISK FOR HEAT RELATED ILLNESSES.

THIS MULTI-DAY HEAT WAVE CAN BE PARTICULARLY STRESSFUL ON SMALL CHILDREN.THE ELDERLY OR ANYONE WITH A MEDICAL CONDITION. BE SURE TO CHECK ON THE ELDERLY LIVING ALONE.THEY ARE TYPICALLY MOST AT RISK.

DO NOT LEAVE PETS OR KIDS ALONE IN A CAR FOR ANY LENGTH OF TIME.

RELIEF WILL COME BY FRI EVENING AS A COLD FRONT SWEEPS THROUGH THE REGION.
