...HEAT ADVISORY FOR THIS AFTERNOON...

HIGH TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED TO CLIMB INTO THE LOW TO MID 90S ACROSS THE INLAND SECTIONS OF EASTERN NORTH CAROLINA THIS AFTERNOON. THESE TEMPERATURES COMBINED WITH DEWPOINTS IN THE MIDDLE 70S WILL PRODUCE HEAT INDEX VALUES OF AROUND 105 DEGREES.

PERSONS IN THE ADVISORY AREA ARE ADVISED TO AVOID PROLONGED WORK IN SUNSHINE, OR IN POORLY VENTILATED AREAS. ALSO, KEEP PLENTY OF LIQUIDS ON HAND AND TRY TO STAY IN AN AIR CONDITIONED ENVIRONMENT.

[Git, I think this is mostly to the East of you, but be careful anyway.]

We're supposed to be careful too--95 with heat indices around 102 or so. Cold fron tonight, storms, 86 tomorrow. Yesssss!

BTW, as soon as the temp tops 85, I stay inside in the AC. . .
