...HEAT ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM 1 PM CDT /NOON MDT/ SATURDAY
TO 10 PM CDT /9 PM MDT/ MONDAY...

* WHAT...Heat index values up to 110 expected.

* WHERE...Portions of northwest and west central Kansas and southwest
  Nebraska.

* WHEN...From 1 PM CDT /noon MDT/ Saturday to 10 PM CDT /9 PM MDT/
  Monday.

* IMPACTS...Heat related illnesses increase significantly during
  extreme heat events.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...The hottest day of this period is currently
  forecast to be Sunday where air temperatures are forecast to exceed
  105 degrees. For Saturday, there is some question about how high
  heat indices may get as drier air may get pulled down from aloft.
  This signal weakens some for Sunday, so Sunday may be the most
  impactful day for heat related impacts. Minimal overnight recovery
  is also forecast as temperatures may not fall below 70-75 degrees.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Take extra precautions when outside. Wear lightweight and loose
fitting clothing. Try to limit strenuous activities to early morning
or evening. Take action when you see symptoms of heat exhaustion and
heat stroke.

Do not leave young children and pets in unattended vehicles. Car
interiors will reach lethal temperatures in a matter of minutes.

Drink plenty of fluids, stay in an air-conditioned room, stay out of
the sun, and check up on relatives and neighbors.

To reduce risk during outdoor work, the Occupational Safety and
Health Administration recommends scheduling frequent rest breaks in
shaded or air conditioned environments. Anyone overcome by heat
should be moved to a cool and shaded location. Heat stroke is an
emergency! Call 9 1 1.
