Unfortunately that 101° is going to feel around 113°! An Excessive Heat Warning is in effect today based on the dangerous combo of heat and humidity. There are significantly cooler temps around the corner so hang in there! #WJZ #MDWX #Baltimore pic.twitter.com/lQdr3xz800

Sweltering..scorching..but not quite record breaking! Saturday's high of 100° fell shy of the 102° record and I think we'll stop a few degrees short of today's record of 104°. #MDWX #Baltimore #WJZ pic.twitter.com/PVleKGnosS
