...HEAT INDEX VALUES BETWEEN 105 AND 109 DEGREES ARE EXPECTED THIS AFTERNOON AND AGAIN WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON... The combination of warm temperatures and high dewpoints will produce heat indices between 105 and 109 degrees this afternoon and again on Wednesday. Persons with outdoor activities are urged to drink plenty of water, wear light weight, light colored and loose fitting clothing. If outdoors for extended periods of time, take frequent breaks from the heat, go inside an air conditioned structure or find some shade. Young children and pets should never be left alone in vehicles under any circumstances. This period of very warm weather will continue into the weekend and heat index values could occasionally exceed 108 degrees and a Heat Advisory may be required.
