Tracking dangerous heat lasting through next week
TONIGHT: I'm tracking temperatures that will be limited to the low 80s today thanks to a cold front that pushed through yesterday, and skies will be mostly sunny.
TOMORROW: I'm tracking temperatures climbing into the low 90s across mid-MO tomorrow, with heat index values in the high 90s.
EXTENDED: Sunday through Wednesday are all Weather Alert Days for dangerous heat, as I'm tracking temperatures in the high 90s, and heat index values in the 105-108 range each day. All of Missouri is currently under an excessive heat watch until 10 PM on Wednesday. It will be mostly sunny to partly cloudy each day, which will help amplify the feels like temperature in the sun, and keep warming up the air every day. Humidity will be high this next week, which is one of the main reasons heat index values will be in the 105-108 range.
