...MAXIMUM HEAT INDICES SUNDAY AFTERNOON...

Hot weather, humid air and subsidence trapped moisture near the ground
causing heat indices in some areas to rise above 110 degrees this afternoon.

Corn fields cause high humidity during the summer and subsidence in the
atmosphere trapped the moisture from the corn. Dew points in these areas
rose into the lower 80s.
