SPECIAL WEATHER STATEMENT
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOUNT HOLLY NJ
306 PM EDT MON JUL 8 2002

A SOUTHWEST BREEZE WILL DEVELOP ON TUESDAY. THIS BREEZE WILL BRING 
HOTTER AND MORE HUMID AIR INTO THE REGION. THE COMBINATION OF THE 
TEMPERATURES AND HUMIDITY WILL MAKE IT FEEL LIKE TEMPERATURES ARE 95 
TO 100 DEGREES TUESDAY AFTERNOON.

FORTUNATELY...THE HEAT AND HUMIDITY WON'T BE WITH US LONG.  A STRONG 
COLD FRONT IS PUSHING SOUTH FROM CANADA...AND WILL MOVE THROUGH THE 
REGION TUESDAY NIGHT. WE WILL LIKELY SEE THUNDERSTORMS WITH OR JUST 
AHEAD THE FRONT. SOME OF THESE THUNDERSTORMS COULD CONTAIN STRONG 
GUSTY WINDS AND HEAVY RAIN.

BEHIND THE FRONT...A COOLER AND DRIER AIRMASS WILL SPREAD IN 
WEDNESDAY AND REMAIN WITH US INTO THE UPCOMING WEEKEND...WHEN WE 
MIGHT SEE THE NEXT CHANCE OF PRECIPITATION.

HERE ARE SOME HOT WEATHER SAFETY RULES...

- MAKE SURE THAT YOUR HOME OR WORKPLACE IS PROPERLY VENTILATED
- USE FANS FOR COOLING IF AIR CONDITIONING IS NOT AVAILABLE
- WEAR LIGHTWEIGHT AND LIGHT-COLORED CLOTHING
- STAY IN THE SHADE
- AVOID STRENUOUS ACTIVITY DURING HOT HOTTEST PART OF THE DAY
- BE AWARE OF THE SIGNS OF AND DIFFERENCES BETWEEN HEAT EXHAUSTION
AND POTENTIALLY DEADLY HEAT STROKE

STATIONS...OR YOUR CABLE TELEVISION OUTLET FOR FURTHER DETAILS OR
UPDATES. ADDITIONAL WEATHER INFORMATION CAN BE FOUND ON THE INTERNET
