ABC-7 First Alert: Record heat potential, Air Quality Alert

Good Tuesday morning everyone, the heat is on! Fall is just around the corner but it won't feel like it this week. The afternoon temperatures will soar to the upper 90's. We are forecasting a record high of 98 degrees - if we hit that we would tie the record that was set back in 1998. Not only will it be hot but it will be hazy. An air quality alert will be in place from 8 am to 8 pm. If you have respiratory issues you should limit your outdoor activities. Temps will remain hot through the weekend.
