Summer time heat continues Friday and into the weekend with little relief in sight.
A heat advisory is currently in effect for Miami-Dade County and the Florida Keys until Friday evening. Heat indices can reach up to 107 degrees for both Miami-Dade and Broward counties, with a heat index up to 110 degrees possible for the Florida Keys as high temperatures climb into the mid-90s for much of the area.
According to the National Weather Service, this is the first heat advisory in May in at least 15 years.
A similar scenario will play out as we move into the weekend.
While there are no advisories currently issued for Saturday, the heat, and its impacts on the human body, will be almost a carbon copy of Friday.
Saturday will feature high temperatures in the mid 90s with heat indices between 105-107 degrees.
If you plan on heading to the pool or beach, pack plenty of water and make sure you have somewhere to get out of the sun and allow your body to cool off. Heat-related illnesses can occur in this kind of heat if out for too long.
Sunday will feature yet another similar day of heat and humidity. Our saving grace on Sunday will be a higher chances for scattered showers and storms in the afternoon to cool some of our neighborhoods off.
