...NEAR RECORD HEAT EXPECTED IN MIDDLE TENNESSEE BY THE END OF
THE WEEK...

...HOT WEATHER SAFETY WILL BE VERY IMPORTANT....

ALTHOUGH HIGHS TODAY ARE ONLY EXPECTED TO BE IN THE 80S ACROSS
THE MID STATE...A RAPID WARM UP IS FORECAST FOR THE LATTER HALF OF
THE WEEK. A LARGE DOME OF HIGH PRESSURE IS FORECAST TO BUILD
EASTWARD OUT OF THE PLAINS...ACROSS THE TENNESSEE VALLEY...AND PUT
MIDDLE TENNESSEE INTO THE PRESSURE COOKER.

HIGH TEMPERATURES WEST OF THE CUMBERLAND PLATEAU...INCLUDING THE
NASHVILLE AREA...WILL WARM FROM THE MID 90S ON WEDNESDAY TO BETWEEN
101 AND 103 DEGREES BY FRIDAY AFTERNOON. MEANWHILE...HIGH TEMPERATURES
ALONG THE CUMBERLAND PLATEAU WILL CLIMB FROM THE UPPER 80S
WEDNESDAY...TO THE MIDDLE 90S BY FRIDAY AFTERNOON.

TEMPERATURES EXPECTED LATE THIS WEEK COULD EASILY TIE OR BREAK
RECORDS. THE HIGH AT NASHVILLE ON FRIDAY IS EXPECTED TO POSSIBLY
REACH THE RECORD FOR THAT DATE...OF 103 DEGREES...SET BACK IN
1952. EVEN FOLKS ALONG THE NORMALLY COOLER CUMBERLAND PLATEAU WILL
NOT ESCAPE THE HEAT THIS WEEK. THE HIGH AT CROSSVILLE ON FRIDAY
IS EXPECTED TO HIT 95 DEGREES...WHICH...IF IT OCCURS...WOULD BREAK
THE OLD RECORD FOR THAT DATE...OF 92 DEGREES...SET BACK IN 1988.

HOT WEATHER SAFETY WILL BE VERY IMPORTANT THIS WEEK. AVOID LONG
TERM EXPOSURE TO THE HEAT...BY REMAINING INDOORS DURING THE
HOTTEST PART OF THE DAY. IF YOU HAVE TO BE OUTSIDE IN THE HEAT...SLOW
DOWN...DRINK PLENTY OF NON ALCOHOLIC FLUIDS...AND WEAR LIGHT WEIGHT...
LOOSE FITTING CLOTHES.
