The Heat Is On...

Weather - Today's high hit 90 degrees in Buffalo.  The dew point is oppresive, with the heat index in triple digits, in many locations across WNY.  Extreme heat can be dangerous, especially after several days.  Many fire companies are opening cooling stations to allow residents to cool down.  Plenty of water, fans, AC and shade will help.  The mercury will begin to cool and humidity drop this weekend for some relief.  The temps are forecast for the low 80s and little rain is expected next week.  It certainly has been a hot and dry summer.
