The hottest days are taking a pause over the past two days on Tuesday and Wednesday providing a much-needed relief. Today remained cooler, the sun was shining, and drier air moving down from the North kept the daytime high more than 12 degrees less than just 3 or 4 days in the past.

It has cooled enough for no Heat Advisories the past three days, Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. Overnight lows were 70° Monday morning August 16. The daily heat index high values reached the upper 90's or a brief maximum of 105 in the afternoon peak temperatures until a cloud would pass over.

And less than an hour after posting the above:

Afternoon temperatures will be near or again exceed the century
mark at many locations both today and tomorrow. When this kind of
heat is combined with the abundant moisture in the air... the
resultant heat index values will range from 105 to 110 degrees.

The heat advisory has been extended once again for the four state region until until 7 PM CDT Monday August 16.

Since July 14 the temps have been 100° and heat indices 105 - 115° — for over 30 days now
