In Oklahoma... Pushmataha... Choctaw... Osage... Washington... Nowata... Craig... Ottawa... Pawnee... Tulsa... Rogers... Mayes... Delaware... creek... Okfuskee... Okmulgee... Wagoner... Cherokee... Adair... Muskogee... McIntosh... Sequoyah... Pittsburg... Haskell... Latimer and Le Flore. Hot and humid weather will continue across eastern Oklahoma and portions of west central Arkansas for the next several days as high pressure aloft continues over the area. Afternoon heat index values are expected to be in the 105 to 110 degree range with overnight lows ranging from the mid 70s to lower 80s. 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. Make sure pets and animals have plenty of water and a shady place to escape direct sunshine.
