...THE FIRST SIGNIFICANT HEAT WAVE OF THE SUMMER SPREADING INTO
MIDDLE TENNESSEE...

Several days of very hot and humid weather will culminate today
and tomorrow as strong high pressure spreads across the mid-state.
High temperatures in the mid 90s will be common through at least
Friday, with heat index values from 100 to 106. The Cumberland
Plateau will not be quite as hot, with maximum heat index values
in the middle 90s.

Wear lightweight, loose fitting, and light colored clothing to
reflect heat if you must be outdoors. Drink plenty of water.
Avoid being outdoors during the afternoon, if possible. Check on
relatives and neighbors, especially the elderly.

Do not leave a child or pet unattended in a vehicle. The
temperatures inside a vehicle can reach deadly levels in only a
few minutes.
