THE FIRST SIGNIFICANT HEAT WAVE OF THE SUMMER WILL ARRIVE MIDWEEK AND CONTINUE INTO THE WEEKEND.

SEVERAL DAYS OF VERY HOT AND HUMID WEATHER ARE EXPECTED AS STRONG HIGH PRESSURE SPREADS ACROSS THE MID STATE.

THE HOTTEST DAYS WILL BE THURSDAY THROUGH SATURDAY, WHEN HIGH TEMPERATURES IN THE MID 90S WILL BE COMMON. HEAT INDEX VALUES WILL TOP OUT IN THE 100 TO 104 DEGREE RANGE EACH AFTERNOON.

THE CUMBERLAND PLATEAU WILL NOT BE QUITE AS HOT, WITH MAXIMUM HEAT INDEX VALUES IN THE MIDDLE 90S.

WEAR LIGHTWEIGHT, LOOSE FITTING, AND LIGHT COLORED CLOTHING TO REFLECT HEAT IF YOU MUST BE OUTDOORS. DRINK PLENTY OF WATER.

AVOID BEING OUTDOORS DURING THE AFTERNOON, IF POSSIBLE. CHECK ON RELATIVES AND NEIGHBORS, ESPECIALLY THE ELDERLY.

DO NOT LEAVE A CHILD OR PET UNATTENDED IN A VEHICLE. THE TEMPERATURES INSIDE A VEHICLE CAN REACH DEADLY LEVELS IN ONLY A FEW MINUTES.
