...EXTREME HEAT WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON
THROUGH SATURDAY EVENING...

* WHAT...Dangerously hot conditions with heat index values up to 110

* IMPACTS...Extreme heat and humidity will significantly increase
the potential for heat related illnesses, particularly for those
working or participating in outdoor activities.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...This has potential to be a multi-day extreme
heat event with near record high temperatures and little overnight
relief. This level of heat can be deadly for those without
adequate cooling and hydration. Impacts to transportation
infrastructure and electrical and water systems are also possible.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

An Extreme Heat Watch means that the combination of heat and
humidity could create a dangerous situation in which heat illnesses
are possible. Take extra precautions if you work or spend time
outside. When possible, reschedule strenuous activities to early
morning or evening. Know the signs and symptoms of heat exhaustion
and heat stroke. Wear light weight and loose fitting clothing when
possible, and drink plenty of water.

Seniors and those with chronic health problems or mental health
conditions are at an increased risk. Homes without air conditioning
can be much hotter than outdoor temperatures.

Use air conditioning to stay cool at home or go to a place that has
air conditioning. If you don't have home air conditioning, continue
to seek out cool spaces each day as long as it remains hot, and for
a few days after if your home is still hot. Check on vulnerable
friends, family members and neighbors.

To reduce risk during outdoor work, the Occupational Safety and
Health Administration recommends scheduling frequent rest breaks in
shaded or air conditioned environments. Anyone overcome by heat
should be moved to a cool and shaded location. Heat stroke is an
emergency! In cases of heat stroke call 9 1 1.
