June 13, 2022 Atlanta: Layla Hall-2 didn’t pay any attention to the heat index on Monday, June 13, 2022 as she frolicked in the water at the Historic Fourth Ward Park Splash Pad in Atlanta. Her mother, Ki Hall (not pictured) brings her usually three times a week. A combination of 90-degree heat and humidity pushed heat index values into the triple digits Monday and all across North Georgia. According to Channel 2 Action News meteorologist Eboni Deon, There could be showers and storms in the mix Tuesday, but Deon said even a 40% chance of rain won’t do much to tamp down the heat. “We’re going to do it all over again on Tuesday,” she said. “Heat index values anywhere from 105 in the Atlanta area, maybe approaching 110 in a few spots. Not the kind of heat you want to spend any time outdoors in.” Highs in the 90s are in the forecast every day this week and into the weekend, according to the latest forecast.
