| Episode Narrative | Strong upper-level high pressure built over the region during the 22nd. Surface high pressure over the Atlantic Ocean caused moist air to move into the region from the south. Strong subsidence underneath the upper-level high caused hot conditions with air temperatures near degrees. The combination of the heat and high humidity caused heat indices to soar over 105 degrees. |
| Event Narrative | Heat indices were estimated to be over 105 degrees due to observations nearby. |
