* WHAT...Dangerously hot conditions with heat index values
around 100 degrees.
* WHERE...Portions of northern Indiana, southwest Michigan and
northwest Ohio.
* WHEN...From Monday morning through Friday evening.
* IMPACTS...Extreme heat and humidity will significantly increase
the potential for heat related illnesses, particularly for those
working or participating in outdoor activities. A lack of
cooling overnight will increase impacts on the body as well for
those lacking sufficient means of cooling.
* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Heat indices into the mid to upper 90s are
possible next weekend beyond the time of the watch. The
prolonged nature of the event may magnify impacts as we move
into the latter portions of the week. In addition, widely
scattered showers and storms Monday and Tuesday could limit the
heat impacts in some areas.
