...UNCOMFORTABLE CONDITIONS ACROSS THE REGION SUNDAY...

THE TEMPERATURE CLIMBED INTO THE MID TO UPPER 90S TODAY AND THE HEAT
INDEX OVER 100 DEGREES. SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WERE SCATTERED
AROUND THE REGION WITH ISOLATED AMOUNTS OVER AN INCH. WARM AND HUMID
CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE OVERNIGHT. 

ON SUNDAY, THE WORST OF THE HOT AND HUMID WEATHER WILL HAVE MOVED 
AWAY FROM THE REGION. STILL, VERY WARM TEMPERATURES AND LINGERING 
HUMIDITY WILL LEAVE UNCOMFORTABLE CONDITIONS OVER THE REGION. HIGH 
TEMPERATURES WILL RANGE FROM THE MID 80S OVER THE HIGHER ELEVATIONS 
OF THE POCONOS TO THE LOW 90S ELSEWHERE. THE HEAT ADVISORY IN EFFECT
FOR THE RARITAN BASIN IN CENTRAL NEW JERSEY WILL BE ALLOWED TO EXPIRE
THIS EVENING. A COLD FRONT WILL APPROACH THE REGION ON MONDAY AND THE
TEMPERATURES WILL LIKELY BE EVEN MORE COOLER AS FREQUENT CLOUDS AND
SHOWERS WILL LIMIT THE AMOUNT OF SUNSHINE. 

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.
