322 PM EDT SUN JUN 5 2005

...HOT TEMPERATURES AND ESPECIALLY HIGHER HUMIDITY LEVELS EXPECTED
MONDAY...
...INCREASING THUNDERSTORM CHANCES MONDAY...

A VERY WARM AIRMASS WILL CONTINUE TO DOMINATE OUR WEATHER OVER THE 
NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS. AS WINDS TURN MORE TO THE SOUTHWEST ACROSS THE
REGION, AN INCREASE IN THE HUMIDITY LEVELS ARE ANTICIPATED LATER
TONIGHT AND THROUGH MONDAY. THIS WILL DRIVE THE HEAT INDEX VALUES
INTO THE LOWER TO MID 90S ACROSS THE URBAN AREAS MONDAY AFTERNOON.
THESE VALUES ARE BELOW THE HEAT ADVISORY CRITERIA, HOWEVER EXTRA
CAUTION SHOULD STILL BE EXERCISED. 

SINCE HOT AND ESPECIALLY MORE HUMID WEATHER CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED 
ON MONDAY, HERE ARE SOME HELPFUL TIPS ON HOW TO KEEP COOL FROM THE 
VERY WARM WEATHER.

DRINK PLENTY OF WATER AND WEAR LIGHT WEIGHT, LIGHT COLORED AND LOOSE 
FITTED CLOTHING. IF AT ALL POSSIBLE, TRY TO GET OUTDOOR WORK 
COMPLETED DURING THE MORNING, TO AVOID THE WARMEST PART OF THE DAY. 
KEEP COOL BY SEEKING AN AIR CONDITIONED BUILDING IF AVAILABLE, OR 
SEEK REST IN THE SHADE. PLEASE CHECK ON THE ELDERLY BECAUSE THE 
SUDDEN CHANGE IN WEATHER WILL HAVE THE GREATEST EFFECT ON THEM. 
REMEMBER TO MAKE SURE PETS HAVE A COOL PLACE TO REST, AND HAVE 
PLENTY OF CLEAN WATER TO DRINK.

AS A WEAK SYSTEM APPROACHES THE REGION MONDAY, SCATTERED SHOWERS 
AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE DURING THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING 
HOURS. SOME OF THE THUNDERSTORMS COULD BECOME SEVERE, ESPECIALLY 
NORTH AND WEST OF PHILADELPHIA. ANY THUNDERSTORM HOWEVER, WILL BE 
CAPABLE OF PRODUCING TORRENTIAL DOWNPOURS.

STAY TUNED TO NOAA WEATHER RADIO ALL HAZARDS, OR YOUR LOCAL MEDIA 
OUTLETS FOR ADDITIONAL UPDATES.

DEVELOP ONCE AGAIN MONDAY AFTERNOON. THEREFORE AFTER QUICK WARMING
TEMPERATURES OCCUR MONDAY MORNING AND EARLY AFTERNOON, THE SEABREEZE

AS A WEAK SYSTEM APPROACHES THE REGION MONDAY, SCATTERED SHOWERS AND 
THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE DURING THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS. 
ANY THUNDERSTORMS SHOULD DEVELOP LATE IN THE DAY FOR AREAS CLOSER TO 
THE COAST, WITH OTHER AREAS POSSIBLY SEEING A THUNDERSTORM FROM 
ABOUT THE EARLY AFTERNOON HOURS ONWARD. SOME OF THESE THUNDERSTORMS 
COULD BECOME SEVERE, WITH THE GREATEST LIKELIHOOD ACROSS NORTHEAST
