| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | A mid-summer heat wave developed across the Midwest and Great Lakes as an upper-level ridge amplified. West to southwest winds pumped in very hot and humid air, making for the hottest temperatures observed in several years. High temperatures ranged from the middle 90s to around 100 across parts of south-central and southeast Wisconsin. Some maximum temperatures were 97 at Janesville (Rock Co.), 101 at the waste water treatment plant in Kenosha, 100 near Genoa City (Walworth Co.), 99 at both Racine and Kenosha, and 97 at Milwaukee General Mitchell Int'l Airport. These temperatures, coupled with dew points in the lower or middle 70s, created dangerous heat index readings of between 110 to 113 degrees during the mid-afternoon and evening hours. The highest heat index values noted were 113 at Watertown (Jefferson Co.), 112 at Janesville (Rock Co.), and 110 at Waukesha (Waukesha Co.), Burlington (Racine Co.), and Kenosha (Kenosha Co.). There were no reports of heat-related fatalities or injuries. Over the remainder of south-central and southeast Wisconsin maximum afternoon temperatures peaked in the lower to mid 90s with heat index values topping out at 102 to 109, which is below excessive heat criteria. |
