A large upper level ridge of high pressure has remained persistent across the Plains and Mississippi Valley this month, and has resulted in numerous days where temperatures have reached or exceeded 100 degrees. Overnight temperatures have also struggled to fall much below 80 degrees as well, contributing to the oppressively hot conditions.
