Warnings and Notices

	Heat Advisory
Statement as of 4:26 PM CDT on July 05, 2009 ... Heat advisory remains in effect until 8 PM CDT this evening... Hot conditions will continue through early evening today before less stressful weather is expected. High temperatures in the middle and upper 90s will combine with high humidity levels to produce heat index readings ranging from 105 to 110 degrees through 8 PM. A front will move into the area on Monday. This will allow the development of thunderstorms... and bring somewhat cooler temperatures to the area with highs only expected around 90 on Monday. Precautionary/preparedness actions... 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.
