Instructions:
The heat and humidity over the next couple of days will be extremely dangerous. Given the number out outdoor activities associated with the 4th of July, the concern for heat related illnesses is only heightened. Take extra care over the next couple of days. The heat will be stifling for those outdoors, with little relief in the shade expected, as very light wind is forecast. Spend as much time indoors during peak heating in air conditioning as you can. Only minor relief is anticipated at sunset, through about 10 p.m. as heat indices will still be in the upper 80s to mid 90s the evening of the 4th.
