...EXCESSIVE HEAT WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM TUESDAY MORNING
THROUGH TUESDAY EVENING...
* WHAT...Dangerously hot conditions with heat index values around
or greater than 105.
* WHERE...Portions of northern Indiana, southwest Michigan and
northwest Ohio.
* WHEN...From Tuesday morning through Tuesday evening.
* IMPACTS...Extreme heat and humidity will significantly
increase the potential for heat related illnesses,
particularly for those working or participating in outdoor
activities.
* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...There is still potential for shower and
thunderstorm activity to limit high temperatures. Warm and humid
conditions overnight with lows in the 70s will make it harder
for people to recover from impacts of heat during the day,
particularly for those without air conditioning.
Instructions:
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

situation. Be prepared to drink plenty of fluids, stay in an air-

and neighbors.
Young children and pets should never be left unattended in
vehicles under any circumstances. This is especially true during
warm or hot weather when car interiors can reach lethal
temperatures in a matter of minutes.
