After warmest peak heat index day since 2015, more oppressive conditions expected into Tuesday
The term “extreme” gets overused, but it accurately described Saturday’s miserable weather conditions and could still apply for Sunday and Monday. Saturday’s air temperature climbed to 98 degrees. However, dewpoints approaching 80 degrees for much of the afternoon pushed the peak heat index to 116 — about 10 degrees hotter than heat index forecasts as late as Saturday morning, thanks to a combination of high dewpoints, lack of wind to bring drier air down to the surface and corn sweat. The National Weather Service says the last time Emporia had a peak heat index of at least 115 was July 23, 2015.
