According to the National Weather Service there is a potential for dangerous heat index values reaching 104-110 degrees tomorrow, July 30 through Sunday, August 1. Santa Rosa County Emergency Management reminds residents and visitors to use caution. Also, do not forget the heat also affects your pets. 

 The most important step the public can take is to NEVER leave children, the elderly or pets in an unattended vehicle.  The temperature in a vehicle can rise 15 - 20 degrees in less than 10 minutes and a child's body temperature warms at a rate of three to five times faster than that of an adult.  Leaving the windows partially rolled down is not sufficient. Even if you plan to be in the store for "just a minute," your children, the elderly and your pet are at risk of a heat stroke.
