Temperatures have reached the century mark for the sixth time this summer, with Monday afternoon hitting 102°. This marks the fifth time this week that triple-digit temperatures have been recorded. The heat index is expected to climb to between 108° and 112° due to humidity.

A Heat Advisory is currently in place and is likely to be extended through at least Wednesday. The current heat wave is considered dangerous and relief is not expected until late in the week.

Late week temperatures will remain in the upper 90s, but there is a chance of increased rain starting Thursday, bringing some relief to the heat. Further details on the forecast are available.
