Heat index values in the range of 105 - 110 degrees are possible today.
The heat could cause heat illnesses. You should drink plenty of fluids, stay inside an air conditioned room if possible and stay out of the sun.
It is also a good idea to check on relatives and neighbors to make sure they are doing well, dealing with the heat.
If you must be outside be sure to wear lightweight and loose fitting clothing. Try to limit strenuous activities to early morning or evening. Be sure to take action when you see symptoms of heat exhaustion and heat stroke.
