Triple-digit heat index locked into our forecast through Saturday

A revised heat advisory is in effect through Friday for the entire Quad State area, due to a prolonged heatwave. 

The extreme heat warning originally issued for Tuesday through Friday has been changed to a heat advisory. A single-day warning may need to be issued, but no area is currently forecast to see 105 or higher heat indices for four straight days, as the earlier outlook indicated.

Humidity values will be a bit lower than the last heat wave, but the actual temperatures will tend to be a bit higher than last time.

Temperatures will be in the upper 90s to around 100 with heat index values approaching 106 degrees. Even as late as next weekend, highs are still expected to be in the mid 90s.

Overnight lows will only drop into the mid to upper 70s, bringing little overnight relief.  In fact, many of the warmest overnight low temperature records could be broken across the area this week.

No meaningful precipitation is forecast until Friday.
