...HEAT ADVISORY NOW IN EFFECT UNTIL 7 PM CDT TUESDAY...

A HEAT ADVISORY IS NOW IN EFFECT UNTIL 7 PM CDT TUESDAY.

TEMPERATURES IN THE MIDDLE AND UPPER 90S AND APPROACHING 100 WILL
COMBINE WITH THE HIGH HUMIDITY LEVELS TO CREATE HEAT INDEX
READINGS OF 105 TO 114 DEGREES OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS. THE
HIGH HUMIDITY WILL HELP KEEP TEMPERATURES IN THE MIDDLE AND UPPER
70S THROUGH THE NIGHT...PROVIDING LITTLE RELIEF FROM THE HEAT.

A HEAT ADVISORY MEANS THAT A PERIOD OF HOT TEMPERATURES IS
EXPECTED. THE COMBINATION OF HOT TEMPERATURES AND HIGH HUMIDITY
WILL COMBINE TO CREATE A SITUATION IN WHICH HEAT ILLNESSES ARE
POSSIBLE. DRINK PLENTY OF FLUIDS...STAY IN AN AIR-CONDITIONED
ROOM...STAY OUT OF THE SUN...AND CHECK UP ON RELATIVES AND
NEIGHBORS.
