Rain Chances Increase With Heat

HOT RUN CONTINUES:
As we got into this upcoming work week, expect temperatures to continue to be hot with an increasing chance for rain. The rain will be of the garden-variety summertime storms. Some of these storms could be strong with heavy rain, strong lightning, and occasional hail. Look for highs the 90's each day this week.

WEEKEND REVIEW:
Highs on both Saturday and Sunday were 93° and the heat index (or feels like) hit 105° yesterday in Cookeville. Two deaths appear to be heat-related at Bonnaroo and CMT Music Festivals in and around Nashville. As hot as it has been, temperatures in June (thus far) are averaging just 2° above normal and some 6° below the record set in 1925.
