If you can't stand the heat, well you're just out of luck for the next couple of days. We have been on the northern dome of some fairly significant heat that has been building in the south. Pretty much the whole month of August temperatures have hit 90° or above through the central and southern Plains and 18 states remain under some type of heat advisory or warning! With a warm front lifting north today the heat will begin to expand into the Great Lakes region. While our actual highs aren't expected to near the triple digit mark , any lack of cloud cover will help temperatures reach the low to possibly mid-90s Thursday and Friday afternoon. That combined with dew points in 70s will certainly make it feel close to 100°. Things look to be changing as we head into next week, however. The ridge that has been in place for the past week and a half will quickly be replaced by an upper level trough that will knock humidity values down and keep temperatures in the tolerable range of the low 80s.
