...EXCESSIVE HEAT WARNING IN EFFECT FROM 11 AM TO 8 PM EDT
THURSDAY...

The National Weather Service in Mount Holly has issued an
Excessive Heat Warning, which is in effect from 11 AM to 8 PM EDT
Thursday. The Excessive Heat Watch is no longer in effect.

* HEAT INDEX...Maximum values between 100 and 105 degrees on
  Thursday due to temperatures in the middle 90s and dew point
  readings in the lower 70s.

* IMPACTS...The excessive heat will have a negative impact on
  individuals who work outdoors. Also, the elderly, young children
  and those with pre-existing health conditions will be at a greater
  risk to be affected by this heat.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

An Excessive Heat Warning means that a prolonged period of
dangerously hot temperatures will occur. The combination of hot
temperatures and high humidity will combine to create a dangerous
situation in which heat illnesses are likely. Drink plenty of
fluids...stay in an air-conditioned room...stay out of the sun...
and check up on relatives and neighbors.

Take extra precautions...if you work or spend time outside. When
possible...reschedule strenuous activities to early morning or
evening. Know the signs and symptoms of heat exhaustion and heat
stroke. Wear light weight and loose fitting clothing when
possible and drink plenty of water.

To reduce risk during outdoor work...the occupational safety and
health administration recommends scheduling frequent rest breaks
in shaded or air conditioned environments. Anyone overcome by heat
should be moved to a cool and shaded location. Heat stroke is an
emergency...call 9 1 1.

Young children and pets should never be left unattended in
vehicles under any circumstances. This is especially true during
warm or hot weather when car interiors can reach lethal
temperatures in a matter of minutes.
