Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeA brief, one day heat wave affected parts of southeast Wisconsin, resulting in the death of a 38-year-old male in the city of Milwaukee. After several days with maximum temperatrures in the 50s, 60's and 70's, the heat on June 20th was sudden enough to affect humans. Milwaukee Mitchell Field registered a high of 90 and a mininum of 72, about 13 to 15 degrees above normal. Similar readings were noted elsewhere in southeast Wisconsin. Heat indices were 95 to 100, thus this heat wave didn't meet the official criteria for a heat wave. Full sunshine and southwest winds of 15 to 25 mph were also observed.
