AREAS ALONG THE IMMEDIATE COAST WILL HAVE A REPRIEVE FROM THE HEAT
DURING THE PERIOD WITH HIGHS GENERALLY IN THE 70S TO LOWER 80S.

THE WARMING AIR MASS WILL ALSO BRING A SIGNIFICANT RISE IN MINIMUM

MOUNTAIN LOCATIONS REMAINING IN THE 70S.

IF YOU PLAN TO ENJOY OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES THIS WEEK AND THROUGH THE
HOLIDAY WEEKEND...BE PREPARED FOR VERY HOT WEATHER...EVEN IN THE

REDUCE OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES IF POSSIBLE...AT LEAST FROM LATE MORNING
THROUGH EARLY EVENING. WEAR LOOSE FITTING LIGHT WEIGHT CLOTHING AND
