| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | A large upper-level high resulted in three to four consecutive days of dangerously high heat indices from 105 to 115 degrees. The large high in the upper levels of the atmosphere expanded over much of the southern two-thirds of the United States for several days. The center of the high gradually shifted east from the southern Plains on the 20th to the middle Mississippi Valley on the 22nd. The high then weakened and shrank on the 23rd. The daily peak heat indices at the Poplar Bluff airport during the heat wave were 109 degrees on the 20th, 110 degrees on the 21st, 109 degrees on the 22nd, and 105 on the 23rd. Actual air temperatures reached the mid 90's each afternoon. Overnight lows were mainly in the mid 70's. About a dozen cooling centers were opened to accomodate residents needing help. These cooling centers were mainly in the Poplar Bluff area. The outdoor Farmer's Market in Cape Girardeau closed early due to the heat. |
