At Carbondale, the high was 100 degrees on the 3rd and 4th, and 101 on the 5th. Humidity contributed to the problem, with afternoon heat indices peaking near 105 degrees. Area hospitals reported surprisingly few cases of heat exhaustion, and no heat-related fatalities occurred. Hospitals reported seeing many people with pre-existing health conditions that were aggravated by the heat and humidity.
