94.3 the Wolf Country That'll Make You Howl!
Meteorologist C.J. Padgett with the National Weather Service in Louisville says as this week gets under way, we’re not really seeing a break in the heat.
“Highs for Monday through Wednesday are going to be in the mid to upper 90s,” Padgett said. “It’s going to be fairly humid as well, still. We’re going to see heat indices in the lower 100s. I wouldn’t be surprised if the heat advisory that is currently ongoing will continue into next week.”
Padgett says it looks like highs will come down to the 80s this Thursday and Friday. He says while temperatures right now are trending a little above the average for this time of year, it isn’t anything the area hasn’t seen before.
“I hate to even call it a heat wave,” Padgett said. “It’s more of just a warm stretch of weather, and just with the humid air masses, it’s kind of amplifying those hotter temperatures in place, so it’s not something that’s completely like something that we haven’t seen before. It’s just kind of: it’s summer, it’s hot. We’re just a few degrees above normal type scenarios.”
Padgett says remember to take precautions in the hot and humid weather. Stay in the shade when you can, limit strenuous activity to the cooler parts of the day, and drink plenty of water.
