Just like it did last week, Alexandria is starting out Monday with warnings about extreme heat.

An Excessive Heat Warning has been issued to Alexandria and many of the surrounding localities. The temperature is hovering around 98 degrees, but it’s expected to hit up to 101. The heat index values are expected to go as high as 111 degrees.

The excessive heat warning is in effect until 8 p.m. this evening when temperatures will go down to 76 degrees. Relief will be short lived though: tomorrow is also likely to be sunny and hot with a high near 100 degrees and a heat value index of 108.
