A large ridge of high pressure built over the region producing hot weather over several days. Daytime high temperatures reached the middle to upper 90s during this period. In combination with humid air, heat index values climbed into the 100 to 105 degree range across northwest Alabama, including the Shoals. A newspaper reported that at least 12 people were treated for heat illness at a Florence hospital. |
