*** HEAT ADVISORIES AND EXCESSIVE HEAT WARNINGS ACROSS GREEN COUNTRY THURSDAY FROM 12:00 PM - 9:00 PM ***

Expect a warm and muggy night across Green Country. Lows tonight will range from the mid 70s to low 80s! An area of showers and storms to our northwest will be weakening as they approach us Thursday morning. We'll leave a chance someone picks up a little rain north of I-44 to start the day, but it won't amount to much.

August will be off to a sizzling start with afternoon highs in the upper 90s to low 100s and heat index values once again at or above 110°. With a weak front moving in from the north, there is a chance a few isolated storms pop-up in the afternoon and evening. If you are lucky, you may pick up some rain and enjoy the rain-cooled air that comes with it.

Temperatures will drop sightly Friday and into the weekend, but our highs still look to be near or just above average for early August (mid/upper 90s). With a ridge of high pressure building back, we may make a run back toward the triple digits much of next week.

Stay cool and hydrated!
