Heat Advisory

This came to my email. Of course, this would happen when the AC goes out:

Issued at: 10:18 AM EDT 8/8/07, expires at: 8:00 PM EDT 8/8/07

heat advisory in effect until 8 pm edt this evening

The NWS in pittsburgh has issued a heat advisory, which is in effect until 8 pm edt this evening. Temperatures will rise to the lower 90s this afternoon. With very humid conditions in place, heat index values will rise to around 100 degrees this afternoon across most of southwest pennsylvania, northern west virginia, and east central ohio.

A heat advisory means that a period of hot temperatures is expected. The combination of hot temperatures and high humidity will combine to create a situation in which heat illnesses are possible. Drink plenty of fluids, stay in an air-conditioned room, stay out of the sun, and check up on relatives and neighbors.
