Easy to see the corn belt on the Midwest dewpoint map this afternoon... Corn transpiration adds moisture to the air and that extreme humidity is pushing feels like temps to around 110°+! @fox4kc #KSwx #MOwx #IAwx
WOW Tampa has never hit 100° until today... ♨️ first time on record. #FLwx

Looks like for last 3 days 1.19” then 2.44” - showed 3.4” in rain tube - then about 3 am very noisy windy ⚡️1.25” making 4.88” of rain. (Digitalstation went offline from lightning overnight before the storm) we’re good on rain for a spell now 💦💦 #mowx @fox4wx @NWSKansasCity
7:00 AM - Still a few quick spotty downpours this morning along with patchy fog! I'm tracking when we clear out & temperatures climb on @fox4kc. #KCwx #MOwx #KSwx
