At 8:00 AM, at the Des Moines Airport, it’s already 80 F, and rising fast. Dew point 71 F, relative humidity 74%. Forecasted high of 90 F. Most of the southern half of Iowa, including the Des Moines metro, remains in a National Weather Service “extreme heat warning” until 10 pm tonight. “Dangerously hot conditions with heat index values over 100.”
Stay safe out there. Check in on any vulnerable folks.

Still dodging +RA, +TS and +GR thru the Midwest "storm corridor" in my #Xplane #flightsim #Cirrus SG50 Vision Jet.
Dropped some fares in Cedar Rapids, IA (KCID) last night, and took another load south to Jackson, MS (KJAN) tonight.
Made it in fine, this sim plane is rock solid. But for some unknown reason, the sim is planting crashed helicopters pretty often on the ramps. Here, a Sikorsky S-76 buried itself deep into the concrete, will not buff out.
