High temperatures across the area were between 95 and 100 degrees for numerous locations. All 17 counties in the Excessive Heat Warning for that day met or exceeded warning criteria.

Heat indices ran between 105 and 115, with a few areas approaching 120 degrees, on this day. The summer of 2010 will likely rank as one of if not the hottest summer on record in eastern Kentucky. |
