Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeA heat wave brought unseasonably hot weather to Delaware on July 8th through the 10th. The highest temperatures were on the 9th and 10th and were mostly in the mid to upper 90s. The combination of the heat and humidity produced afternoon heat indices of around 100F both afternoons. Cloudiness that preceded a cold front on the 11th prevented most places from reaching 90F again. During the heat wave, Delaware Electric Cooperative requested customers to use less power. Four cooling stations were opened in Sussex County. Portable air condition sales jumped about 50 percent.||Highest temperatures included 99 degrees in Prime Hook (Sussex County), 98 degrees in Dover and Milford (Kent County), 97 degrees in Sandtown and Smyrna (Kent County), Greenwood and Seaford (Sussex County) and 96 degrees in Blackbird and Middletown (New Castle County) and Bethany Beach (Sussex County).
