Warm and close through the small hours, the air near 75°F and hardly moving under broken cloud. The cloud thinned with the dawn. By mid-morning the sky was clear and the heat came on hard, past 94° by noon and near 103° in mid-afternoon, a heat that sat on the chest and threw itself back up off the pavement with a hot breeze that helped nothing. Nothing eased until sundown. Even then the air was still near 92° well after dark and the streets held the heat long past midnight.
