Heat Advisories continue across Acadiana as the heat index is expected to sit between 108-112 Tuesday afternoon.
You don't need me to tell you that you need to drink water and take it easy when possible; but since that's what I'm paid to do I'll reiterate, you need to drink water and take it easy when possible.
