Heat Advisory Issued Locally

(MSC News)--Extreme heat leads to the issuance of a Heat Advisory. 

The National Weather Service says dangerous heat this weekend is expected to impact local communities, leading to the issuance. Increased temperatures will persist over the area heading into the early weekend, resulting in heat indices as high as 105 to 109 degrees by Saturday afternoon.

Those with outdoor activities this weekend should plan ahead to hydrate, rest often, and even consider moving some activities either to cooler times of the day or to Sunday when temperatures will be significantly cooler.

A Heat Advisory means that a period of hot temperatures is expected. The combination of hot temperatures and high humidity will combine to create a situation in which heat illnesses are possible.

Drink plenty of fluids...stay in an air-conditioned room...stay out of the sun...and check up on relatives and neighbors.
