..HEAT WAVE EXPECTED THIS WEEKEND...
A STRONG AREA OF HIGH PRESSURE ALOFT WILL BUILD EAST ACROSS THE
MISSISSIPPI VALLEY. AS IT DOES...INCREASINGLY HUMID AIR WILL SPREAD
ACROSS CENTRAL AND SOUTHEAST ILLINOIS. TEMPERATURES THIS WEEKEND
ARE EXPECTED TO REACH THE MID 90S DURING THE AFTERNOONS...WITH
HEAT INDEX VALUES OF 100 TO 105 DEGREES. NOT MUCH RELIEF IS
EXPECTED AT NIGHT...AS LOW TEMPERATURES ONLY DIP INTO THE MID 70S.
WITH THE UNUSUALLY COOL WEATHER AS OF LATE...MANY AREAS HAVE NOT
REACHED 90 DEGREES SINCE THE END OF JUNE. AS PEOPLE MAY NO LONGER
BE USED TO THE SUMMER HEAT...THERE IS A POTENTIAL FOR OVEREXERTION
AND RESULTING HEAT RELATED ILLNESSES. TRY TO AVOID SPENDING
EXCESSIVE AMOUNTS OF TIME OUTSIDE THIS WEEKEND...ESPECIALLY DOING
STRENUOUS ACTIVITIES. STAY IN AN AIR CONDITIONED AREA AS MUCH AS
POSSIBLE...DRINK PLENTY OF FLUIDS...AND CHECK UP ON NEIGHBORS AND
RELATIVES WHO MAY NOT HAVE AIR CONDITIONING.
THE HEAT WILL LIKELY LINGER INTO MONDAY...BEFORE A BIT OF A
COOLING TREND BEGINS.
