Statement as of 4:42 AM CDT on August 07, 2007

... Heat advisory in effect until 7 PM CDT this evening...

The National Weather Service in New Orleans has issued a heat
advisory... which is in effect until 7 PM CDT this evening.

A very hot... humid airmass has settled along the southeast
Louisiana and Mississippi coast today. Temperatures during the
pre dawn hours continue to hover around 80 degrees. High
temperatures are expected to rise into the middle 90s. These hot
temperatures will combine with dew point temperatures in the mid
70s to produce a heat index around 105 degrees.

Unfortunately... the hot humid airmass associated with a stagnant
high pressure system located over the lower Mississippi Valley
will persist into Wednesday. So its possible the heat advisory may
be extended into Wednesday.

A heat advisory means that a period of hot temperatures is
expected. The combination of hot temperatures and high humidity
will combine to create a situation in which heat illnesses are
possible. Drink plenty of fluids... stay in an air-conditioned
room... stay out of the sun... and check up on relatives and
neighbors.
