Hotter Than A Firecracker

It's hot across much of the nation today - with heat advisories covering most of the middle states.

That is not so much due to the actual temperatures, but the humidity.

Highs across much of the heartland will climb into the 90s, but will feel like the 100-110° range once you factor in the humidity.

Severe storms are expected across Minnesota and Wisconsin this afternoon. There is actually a pretty good threat for tornadoes.

A few isolated severe storms may fire over the Front Range of Colorado, along the Interstate 25 corridor from Colorado Springs to Dener and Fort Collins.

And the winner for heat is Phoenix and Las Vegas where afternoon temperatures are climbing above 110° and overnight lows are barely dropping below 90°!!!
