FORECASTER STEWART

Statement as of 5:44 AM EDT on June 27, 2010

... Heat index values between 98 and 103 degrees this afternoon...

Hot and humid conditions will cover the mid Atlantic region today.
Afternoon high temperatures will rise into the mid to upper 90s
east of the Blue Ridge mountains. The combination of heat and
humidity will generate heat index values as warm as 104 degrees
during the afternoon.

These values can be a concern for sensitive groups such as
infants and the elderly. Therefore... simple precautions should be
taken. The most important thing to remember is to drink plenty of
fluids. Water is your best choice as it prevents dehydration.
Consider taking frequent breaks in the shade during the afternoon
sun. Seek an air conditioned environment during the hottest part of
the day. Also remember that the interior of your car heats up
quickly. Do not leave children or pets in an enclosed car for any
period of time... not even with the windows cracked.
