| episode_narrative | A heat wave affected Delaware during the work week of July 20th. The hottest day for the heat wave and the summer (in central and southern Delaware) was the 22nd. There were at least eight heat related injuries throughout the state. A weak trough brought in slightly cooler air on the 23rd. A strong cold front that moved through the Delmarva Peninsula early in the day on the 24th brought in a much drier and cooler air mass for the upcoming weekend (July 25th and 26th). The highest temperatures included 100 degrees in Lewes (Sussex County), 99 degrees in Georgetown (Sussex County), 98 degrees in Bridgeville (Sussex County), 96 degrees in Dover (Kent County), 94 degrees in Odessa (New Castle County) and 92 degrees at the New Castle County Airport.
