Hot summer continues with more 90s
INDIANAPOLIS (WISH)–The summer sizzle continues across much of Indiana. Temperatures have been in the upper 80s and lower 90s for a good portion of the summer.
As of Thursday morning we’ve had 14 days in the 90s this summer. The highest temperatures we’ve seen so far was on July 5th when the mercury climbed to 99 degrees. The average number of 90 degree days is 20 in Indianapolis. A number we are likely to get close to by the end of the month.

In June the temperature was almost 2 degrees above normal. So far for the month of July we’re almost 3 degrees above normal. Temperatures will continue to be above normal for the next week to 10 days meaning we may climb into the top 25 warmest July’s on record.
