Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeVery warm air in the 80s and 90s and dew point temperatures in the lower and middle 70s resulted in heat index readings of 95 to 105 degrees across much of northwest Wisconsin on July 20th. The highest readings were for areas closer to the Minnesota border.
Event narrativeevent_narrativeThere were heat index readings of 95 to 105 degrees across parts of Douglas County, but much cooler readings near the city of Superior because of cooler flow from Lake Superior. A few weather stations near Highway 2, east of Superior, climbed to over 100 degrees, including a station in South Range (105 degrees), a station in Poplar (103 degrees), and an RWIS in Rockmont (101 degrees). The RAWS in Barnes reached 99 degrees and the AWOS near Solon Springs reached 96 degrees. Also, the station in nearby Washburn County reached 101 degrees.
