With temperatures surging toward 100.

For the record, water boils at 212 degrees - and though we won't get anywhere near that, it sure may feel like it later in the week. Temperatures are expected to get into the low 90s on Thursday and Friday - combine that with increased humidity and the heat index (the real feel) will approach 100. 

In the National Weather Service chart below, it sounds like most of the area won't be spared from the super-warm temps - so make sure that air conditioner is functional. 

Keep in mind, certain populations are more prone to be affected by the extreme heat and should take precautions according to the National Weather Service: 

• Young children and infants are particularly vulnerable to heat-related illness and death, as their bodies are less able to adapt to heat than are adults. 
• Older adults, particularly those who have pre-existing diseases, take certain medications, are living alone or have limited mobility who are exposed to extreme heat can experience multiple adverse effects.
• People with chronic medical conditions are more likely to have a serious health problem during a heat wave than healthy people.
• Pregnant women are also at higher risk. Extreme heat events have been associated with adverse birth outcomes such as low birth weight, preterm birth, and infant mortality, as well as congenital cataracts.

As always, stay hydrated, check on loved ones and limit strenuous outdoor activities. If you're looking for a place to cool off, check out this little hidden gem in Saratoga County.
