episode_narrativeHot, muggy air settled over southeast Wisconsin. A new daily maximum temperature of 98 was set in Sheboygan, breaking the old record of 97 set back in 1931. Although Milwaukee recorded a maximum temperature of 92 (not a daily record), the daytime heat indices reached 110 and stayed above 80 in the evening. This led to a heat-related death of an elderly gentleman living in an apartment on the south side of Milwaukee.
