...HOT SPELL OF WEATHER TO CONTINUE THROUGH THE WEEKEND...

THE SPELL OF HOT WEATHER THAT HAS BEEN OVER OUR REGION THE PAST FEW 
DAYS IS EXPECTED TO PERSIST INTO THIS WEEKEND. MAXIMUM TEMPERATURES 
SATURDAY AND SUNDAY WILL BE IN THE LOW TO MID 90S, BUT THE HEAT 
INDICES WILL TOP OUT BETWEEN 100 AND 105 DEGREES EACH DAY. THE 
TEMPERATURES NEAR THE SHORE WILL BE A SOMEWHAT COOLER. 

THERE WILL BE ONLY A LIMITED AMOUNT OF RELIEF FROM THE HEAT DURING 
THE OVERNIGHT HOURS WITH TEMPERATURES ONLY DROPPING INTO THE 70S.

A FRONTAL SYSTEM WILL MOVE TOWARDS OUR REGION EARLY NEST WEEK. THIS 
FRONT COMBINED WITH AN INCREASE IN TROPICAL AIR WILL PRODUCE MORE 
CLOUDS AND SHOWERS FOR OUR REGION. THESE RAINS AND SLIGHTLY COOLER 
AIR BEHIND THE FRONT WILL KEEP TEMPERATURES FROM REACHING THE LEVELS 
THAT WE WILL HAVE THIS WEEKEND. 

TO BEAT THE HEAT, LIMIT YOUR TIME OUT OF DOORS IF POSSIBLE, 
ESPECIALLY DURING THE HEAT OF THE AFTERNOON.  BE SURE TO CHECK ON 
YOUR ELDERLY RELATIVES AND NEIGHBORS.  THE ELDERLY ARE MOST 
SUSCEPTIBLE TO HEAT RELATED HEALTH PROBLEMS. WATCH OUT FOR CHILDREN 
AND PETS AS WELL.
