...HOT AND HUMID CONDITIONS EXPECTED THROUGH FRIDAY...

HOT AND HUMID CONDITIONS WILL DEVELOP TODAY ACROSS MUCH OF OUR
REGION. THESE UNCOMFORTABLE CONDITIONS WILL LAST INTO FRIDAY. 

HIGH TEMPERATURES TODAY SHOULD PEAK IN THE 90 TO 95 DEGREE RANGE IN
MOST AREAS AND READINGS ON THURSDAY WILL BE A FEW DEGREES WARMER. THE
HEAT INDEX WILL RISE TO BETWEEN 95 AND 100 DEGREES IN MOST AREAS AND
EVEN WARMER THAN THAT IN URBANIZED LOCATIONS WHERE EXCESSIVE HEAT
WARNINGS HAVE BEEN ISSUED. TONIGHT THE TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN MILD,
AND WITH THE HIGH HUMIDITY LEVELS, ONLY LIMITED RELIEF FROM THE HEAT
CAN BE EXPECTED. AREAS NEAR THE SHORES AND IN THE HIGHER ELEVATIONS
LIKE THE POCONOS MAY ESCAPE THE WORST OF THE HOT AND HUMID
CONDITIONS. 

TO BEAT THE HEAT, ITS BEST TO LIMIT YOUR OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES DURING
THE AFTERNOON HOURS. HOWEVER, IF YOU ARE GOING TO BE ACTIVE OUTDOORS,
DRINK PLENTY OF FLUIDS AND TAKE FREQUENT BREAKS FROM ACTIVITY IN AN
AIR CONDITIONED BUILDING OR VEHICLE. 

STAY TUNED TO NOAA WEATHER RADIO AND OTHER LOCAL MEDIA OUTLETS FOR
FURTHER DETAILS OR UPDATES.
