So hot outside your face might feel like this. Oh and another reason not to fire rockets out of your teeth (NOT recommended for obvious reasons).

Another hot and humid day is in the forecast to start the new work week. A Heat Advisory remains in effect until 8pm this evening. Highs today climb into the upper 90s to near 100 degrees, but may not reach those values should afternoon showers and thunderstorms form.

Seeing a lot of folks posting the "feels like" or heat index temps in the 120's. This is not a correct heat index reading. It's when the thermometer is directly in the sun without a heat shield and it picks up radiational heating on the unit and perhaps from objects around it. You can see here my own unit directly in the sun in the back yard shows that it feels like 125° when it is more like 108-110°. Also car thermisters are not accurate either. They tend to read a bit high as well from the heat of the car around it.
