A heat wave is expected to move through Indiana this week.
Experts say the heat is a result of pressure building throughout the plains states and moving eastward into the Ohio Valley.
Jason Puma with the National Weather Service says Monday and Tuesday will all be in the lower 90’s. Heat is expected to peak on Thursday with temperatures reaching the mid-to-upper 90’s.
Puma advises trying and avoid being outdoors during peak heating hours over the course of the week.
The heat should move out of the state quickly after Thursday as Puma says there is a cold front expected to follow.
