A streak of oppressive late-summer weather is expected to continue Friday, not as hot as earlier in the week, but, the National Weather Service suggests, maybe even more humid — with temperatures in the mid-80s and humidity levels approaching 100%. As a result, a heat advisory in place for days now will remain in effect Friday until 6 p.m., the weather service warning those at-risk and vulnerable due to chronic health conditions that despite lower temperatures the heat index means it will still feel like it's somewhere between 95 and 100 degrees outside.
