As a heat wave settles over Greater Cincinnati, where you live could determine how hot it feels outside.
Much of the region is under a heat advisory from noon June 29 through 8 p.m. July 2. According to the National Weather Service in Wilmington, the heat index could reach 105 degrees in Greater Cincinnati, with dewpoints in the 70s and temperatures in the mid-90s to low 100s over the next few days.
