Current temps at 850mb. +30C over Kansas! Watch that area over Kansas and Oklahoma today for intense heat at the surface this afternoon. Wild guess that's where the "hot" spot will be today. Maybe southern Nebraska too

These are actual temps right now, not heat index.

All I did was look where the warmest air mass was at the mid levels in the morning. No forecasts

Florida?

Come on Cambium...you can't leave us out!!

And here's the heat index out there when factoring in the dewpoints. Keep that central ridge right there. I love seeing Virginia and Ohio below 90!

Not nervous at all with this pattern. Sure it's sucks here right now warm and muggy but it can be worse!

GFS backed off the heat it was showing the other day for the long range. lol. Or maybe I did my jinxing trick again.

Just got back from walking around the beach, glad there's a sea breeze!
