Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeA large and strong high in the upper levels of the atmosphere remained centered over the south central United States. The strength and size of the high brought excessive heat as far northeast as the Lower Ohio Valley and Mid-Mississippi Valley. The peak heat index at Poplar Bluff reached 111 degrees on the 1st, 113 on the 2nd, and 126 on the 3rd. The peak heat index at Cape Girardeau reached 106 degrees on the 1st, 101 on the 2nd, and 119 on the 3rd. The combination of the heat and abnormally dry conditions reduced some crop yields, especially corn yields. The governor of Missouri asked the Farm Service Agency to conduct damage assessments in all counties as a result of the excessively hot and dry weather.
