LAF is back...any cool bias notion/silliness is null and void. Running near the top in the state with HUF and IND today. Call it the Bermuda Triangle of Indiana if you will.

Guess it shouldn't be too surprising. All things being equal, temps should trend warmer as you move from south to north given that the core of the thermal ridge is farther north. Of course all things aren't equal though given clouds, differences in recent rain amounts etc.

Sure. But there were different factors in play with prior "real hot" stretches this summer too. Regardless, congrats on another 100º day. 12 to go...

It's not that unreal to assume we will get a few more shots at high intensity heat as we head into August and even early Sep. September 2nd last year sticks out like a sore thumb it was 98-100 across the region. I also remember a few good August roasters and heat waves.

As impressive as the heat has been this summer, it pales in comparison to what was seen in the 30s at MLI. Just goes to show in particular how incredible 1936 was. Also, 1988 had 11 100+ days. Got a long ways to go to achieve that. What's interesting is the most (6) happened in August that year...

I c what ur saying. Personally I would have rather had a 100 degree reading than just breaking the old 98. This mornings precip muted the heat and tamed the air mass.

I knew that little shower/cloud cover before 10am would keep us below 100 but still its hotter then a mother yrucker outside.
