Curious how hot it was today? Most locations saw highs in the 90s, aside from the mountains where highs were in the 80s. Maximum heat indices were between 100-110 degrees for most locales.

Hot again today with heat indices around 100 degrees. Stay cool and hydrated if you are out and about today. A few storms west of the Blue Ridge today may keep things slightly cooler out that way, but still in the mid 90s.
