Heat Advisory Hits Midwest | Columbus News

Heat advisory in effect for central Ohio until 8 PM with temps near 93°F and humidity making it feel like 100°F — this isn’t just local, it’s a Midwest and East Coast-wide heat wave. Scattered thunderstorms possible after 1 PM with a 40% chance of rain, bringing under a tenth of an inch but enough to douse your cookouts or fireworks. Storms may linger into early July 5th. Stay hydrated, wear lighter clothes, and check on vulnerable neighbors. Officials urge caution: drink water, avoid midday heat, never leave kids or pets in cars, and ease up on electricity use during peak hours to help the grid.
