Hopefully you've enjoyed the milder start to June, because there's a heat wave coming to central Illinois.

Ed Shimon, of the National Weather Service in Lincoln, indicates this weekend will likely see the last moderate temperatures for quite awhile.  He says the week ahead will see highs spike into the 90's, with Tuesday's highs hitting near 100-degrees even before factoring in the humidity....

Shimon reminds residents to take precautions, especially if you'll be working outside in the heat this week....

Sunday we'll see high temperatures creep towards 90-degrees.  Tuesday & Wednesday look to be the hottest days of the upcoming week.  Shimon says a late week front could bring some chances for rain, and some minor relief from the scorching heat toward more normal summer temperatures.
