Can it get hotter than this?

Here is the SPC outlook for tomorrow.  Almost all of Kentucky is in the Slight Risk zone for severe thunderstorms.  Hopefully, we will indeed see storms because they will temper the heat a little.  But keep in mind that any storms that do develop will be able to go severe and cause damage.



Check out this pic from right here in Lawrenceburg this afternoon.  Wow.  If you remember, 11 months ago we were seeing heat index readings in the 120s!  I don't recall ever seeing heat index readings that high in Kentucky before.  Well, today we are approaching those numbers.  This is DANGEROUS heat.  Please take this seriously.  People die in the heat every year unexpectedly.

The NWS has a Heat Advisory in effect Tuesday for the bluegrass counties.  Everybody along and west of I65 is under an Excessive Heat WARNING.

Take care out there.
