Boy......is it hot in the mid-west this week.
It's the beginning of the special holiday week where Americans celebrate their independence by not working, taking a vacation, cook-outs, going to parades and watching fireworks displays.
Here in the upper mid-west of the USA, the temperatures have been in the 90's Fahrenheit with the heat index of about 105 degrees.
Stay cool, stay hydrated, and most of all.......stay safe.
