Daily high temperatures are forecast to be in the low to mid 90s with afternoon heat indices of 95 to 100 degrees and as high as 100 to 105 degrees during the peak afternoon hours. This type of heat and humidity may be hazardous. If working outside this week, make sure to drink plenty of fluids, especially water.

Provide shade and fresh water for outdoor pets and livestock. And always check the inside of your vehicle when transporting children.
