Special Weather Statement issued June 20 at 9:26PM EDT by NWS Jackson KY

Temperatures warming into the 90s will combine with an
increasingly humid airmass to produce several consecutive days of
heat indices above 100 degrees for portions of the area from
Sunday to Friday. Overnight lows are forecast to be in the 70s
for most locations from Monday night through Thursday night, and
this lack of nighttime heat relief will further increase the risk
of heat impacts.

Plan now for next week’s anticipated heat by checking that your
air conditioning and fans are in good working order. Know the
signs of heat illness and practice heat safety by staying
hydrated. Check in on people without air conditioning, as well as
any elderly relatives and neighbors. Never leave children or
animals in an unattended vehicle, as car interiors can reach
deadly temperatures in a matter of minutes.
