Blistering heat remains guaranteed for area residents into early next week.
Air temperatures will climb into the upper 90s Saturday with heat index readings between 105-110. Air temperatures for Sunday and Monday will be at or above 100 with heat index readings between 105-110. Air temperatures Tuesday will climb to the upper 90s.
The National Weather Service has all area counties in heat advisories from early Saturday afternoon until 8 pm Sunday. As has been the case with previous cases of severe heat earlier this summer, residents are encouraged to wear light and loose-fitting clothes, limit strenuous activities to early morning or evening hours, take frequent breaks and check on young and elderly alike. Residents are also urged not to leave children or pets in vehicles while out running errands.
