...MORE HEAT AND HUMIDITY TODAY...

HEAT AND HUMIDITY WILL BE ON THE INCREASE TODAY. SINCE THIS SUMMER 
HAS NOT BEEN FILLED WITH MANY OPPRESSIVE DAYS, THIS AFTERNOON WILL 
FEEL A LITTLE MORE UNCOMFORTABLE THAN USUAL. 

THE COMBINATION OF A STRONG JULY SUN AND SOUTHERLY BREEZES WILL 
BOOST MAXIMUM TEMPERATURES TO AROUND 90 DEGREES THIS AFTERNOON. 
COUPLED WITH TYPICAL JULY HUMIDITY LEVELS, AFTERNOON HEAT INDICES 
WILL TOP OUT IN THE LOWER TO MID 90S. WHILE TEMPERATURES ON FRIDAY 
ARE FORECAST TO BE SLIGHTLY LOWER, HUMIDITY READINGS WILL REMAIN 
UNCOMFORTABLE. A SLOW MOVING COLD FRONT WILL GRADUALLY BRING COOLER 
AND DRIER AIR INTO THE AREA THIS WEEKEND.

WHILE THIS AFTERNOON WILL NOT BE EXTREMELY HOT, IT STILL MAKES GOOD 
SENSE TO SAVE THE MOST STRENUOUS ACTIVITIES FOR THE COOLER PARTS OF 
THE DAY. DRINK PLENTY OF NON-ALCOHOLIC FLUIDS AND WEAR LIGHT COLORED 
CLOTHING. CHECK ON THE YOUNG AND THE ELDERLY, ESPECIALLY IF THEY 
LIVE IN URBANIZED LOCATIONS AND DO NOT HAVE ACCESS TO AIR 
CONDITIONING. DO NOT LEAVE CHILDREN OR PETS IN A VEHICLE FOR ANY 
LENGTH OF TIME. IF YOU KEEP YOUR PETS OUTSIDE, MAKE SURE THEY HAVE 
ACCESS TO A WELL VENTILATED SHELTER, SHADE, AND PLENTY OF COOL 
WATER.
