Message summary: ...very hot weather expected sunday and monday...
Upper level high pressure will strengthen over north texas sunday
and bring the hottest temperatures so far this summer to the
region. High temperatures on sunday across north texas are
expected to range between 100 and 105 degrees. Highs on monday
will only be a degree or two cooler. Fortunately southwest winds
will bring drier air into the region and relative humidity will
drop below 30 percent during the afternoon hours. Therefore heat
index values will not be much higher than the actual air
temperatures. The upper level high will begin to weaken slightly
by tuesday with high temperatures cooling slightly...but still
near 100 degrees through the remainder of next week.
Persons involved in vigorous outdoor activities are urged to take
frequent breaks and drink plenty of water. Wear loose fitting and
light colored clothing. Be sure to check on persons with health
problems and the elderly...as they are the most susceptible to
heat exhaustion and heat stroke. Never leave young children or
pets in an enclosed vehicle...even for a short time...as
temperatures can quickly rise to life threatening levels.
