Extreme heat finally over; daily thunderstorms possible next week

The extreme heat has finally pushed off to the east of us, now a problem for the July 4th revelers on the East Coast. Our temperatures are set to "fall" to around 90, our historical average daily high for July in Paducah.

After Saturday's 7th consecutive triple digit reading, the heat index should stay below 100 most days for the next week.

A few strong to severe storms with damaging winds will be possible this afternoon and evening.

Daily chances of showers and storms are forecast through the next week, meaning substantial cloud cover will also keep heat indices down.
