Six of the first eight days of August in Indianapolis featured highs in the 90s. It hasn’t been above 90 again since then. (There’s something I always like to add right about now: “SHHH!”) Of course, that particular streak ended with a bang. The high August 8 was 98 degrees. It was the 49th time […]
