Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeA single-day heat wave affected a few counties in south-central and southeast Wisconsin, resulting in about a dozen people being treated for the affects of heat at local hospitals. Maximum temperatures were in the lower to mid 90s, and morning lows were in the lower 70s. Afternoon heat index values reached 105 to 108 for at least 3 hours in Rock, Walworth, Racine, and Kenosha counties, meeting the official threshold value for daytime heat indices which is 105 or higher for 3 hours or more. Elsewhere across south-central and southeast Wisconsin heat indices were in the 95 to 104 range. Southwest winds of 13 to 22 kts (15 to 25 mph) offered little relieve.
