According to the advisory statement, heat index values up to 102 degrees are expected.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The highest temperatures and heat indices are expected to occur today,&#8221; the statement said. &#8220;Low temperatures in the mid 70s tonight will not provide much relief from the heat. Drink plenty of fluids, stay in an air-conditioned room, stay out of the sun, and check up on relatives and neighbors. Young children and pets should never be left unattended in vehicles under any circumstances.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The high will be 94 degrees Thursday and 92 degrees Friday, with slightly lower temperatures on the barrier island. There will be a small chance of an isolated thunderstorm Thursday night before 10 p.m. and a 40 percent chance of showers or thunderstorms Friday night before 2 a.m.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fcbkbttn_buttons_block\" id=\"fcbkbttn_left\"><div class=\"fb-share-button fcbkbttn_large_button \" data-href=\"https:\/\/shorebeat.com\/brick\/2022\/08\/sunset-for-the-birds-a-little-wildlife-to-end-the-day-in-brick\/\" data-type=\"button_count\" data-size=\"large\"><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It was a hazy sunset Wednesday night, with the sun&#8217;s rays slinking behind some far-off wispy clouds.
