Excessive Heat Warning Notice #2
Thursday, July 18, 2019

Dear Resident,

The National Weather Service has expanded the weather advisory and there is now an Excessive Heat Warning in effect from Friday, 12:00pm until Sunday, 10:00pm.

  • HEAT INDEX VALUES...100 to 105 on Friday afternoon, 105 to 110 on Saturday afternoon, and 100 to 105 on Sunday afternoon.
  • TIMING...The most dangerous of the heat and humidity will occur from mid-afternoon into the early evening each day. However, overnight minimum temperatures will only drop into the mid to upper 70s, providing little relief from daytime heat.
  • IMPACTS...The excessive heat and humidity may cause heat stress or heat stroke. The most susceptible individuals are the elderly and those with pre-existing health issues.

In the case of a power outage, reporting outages helps the crew pinpoint damage and restore power more quickly. Call JCP&L at 888-544-4877, or report via text or on-line. We remind you to assume that all downed wires and live and dangerous. Do not touch or drive over them and report to Marlboro Police immediately.

Please read JCP&L’s Press Release on how to conserve energy and keep cool HERE.
Heat safety tips and resources are available from the National Weather Service. Drink plenty of water, limit outdoor exercise, and stay in air conditioned places as much as possible. Please never leave children, disabled adults or pets in the car, not even for a minute. Look before you lock!

The Marlboro Police are available 24/7 and can be reached at 732-536-0100. For emergencies always dial 911. We again ask that you check in on your neighbors who may be in need of assistance.
