COURT HOUSE – National Weather Service has issued a heat advisory and air quality alert for Cape May County.
The heat advisory remains in effect until 8 p.m. this evening, July 20.
According to the National Weather Service, maximum heat index values will be 102 to 107 this afternoon, with temperatures in the mid-90s today.

A heat advisory means that a period of excessive heat is expected. The combination of hot temperatures and high humidity will create a situation in which heat illnesses are possible. Stay out of the sun and check on elderly relatives and neighbors. Keep an eye on children and pets as well.
