Brutal heatwave hits Midwest

Wow ... dewpoint temperatures in the lower 80s as far north as Minnesota ... creating heat index readings in the 110 to 120 range.

WHEW!

A brutal heavwave is gripping the center of the nation. Colorado sits on the very edge ... it's hot in Denver ... but thankfully our dewpoint is only near 60 degrees ... meaning we COOL OFF at night ... unlike the midwest states.

Tropical Storm Bret has formed off the coast of Florida ... it's the second named system of the season.
It will bring some unsettled waters to Florida's east coast ... and maybe some gusty winds and showers ... but it is forecast to move away from land.
