...A HOT AND HUMID DAY IN STORE FOR THE REGION...

THE COMBINATION OF HIGH TEMPERATURES OF AROUND 90 DEGREES AND 
AFTERNOON DEW POINTS AVERAGING IN THE LOWER 70S WILL PRODUCE HEAT
INDICES THAT WILL REACH INTO THE LOWER TO MID 90S LATER TODAY. THIS
WILL MATCH IF NOT SLIGHTLY EXCEED MEMORIAL DAY AS THE MOST
OPPRESSIVE DAY OF THE WARM SEASON SO FAR.

IF YOU ARE PLANNING ANY STRENUOUS OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES LATER TODAY, 
PLEASE TAKE IT EASY AND DRINK PLENTY OF LIQUIDS. IF POSSIBLE
POSTPONE THEM TO A COOLER PART OF THE DAY. PLEASE MAKE SURE THE
ELDERLY AND VERY YOUNG ARE DOING WELL AND THAT YOUR PETS HAVE
SUFFICIENT WATER AND SHELTER FROM THE HEAT. NEVER LEAVE A CHILD OR
PET IN A VEHICLE EVEN FOR A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME.

SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP THIS 
AFTERNOON AND GIVE SOME RELIEF FROM THE HEAT. THE GREATEST THREAT
FROM THE THUNDERSTORMS AS OF EARLY THIS MORNING IS FOR HEAVY RAIN
TO OCCUR AS THEY ARE EXPECTED TO BE SLOW MOVERS. IF THE
THUNDERSTORMS CAN ORGANIZE INTO A LINE, THE THREAT FOR STRONGER
WIND GUSTS WOULD INCREASE. ANY THUNDERSTORM WILL PRODUCE
LIGHTNING AND LIGHTNING KILLS. PLEASE SEEK SHELTER AT THE FIRST
SIGN OF THREATENING WEATHER.
