Plenty of seats available for Star's April 25 weather panel

The Brandi Fenton Splash Pad offered a welcome reprieve from last summer's heat. A panel of experts offer insights into Tucson's weather at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday, April 25 in the Tucson Jewish Community Center ballroom. 

We've reached the final stretch — the 3-day excessive heat warning is expected to end at 8 p.m. tonight. 

Yesterday, we beat a record when we hit 112 degrees. The last record for the specific date was set in 1987 when Tucson hit 109. Yesterday's temperature was also the hottest July temperature since 1995 and the fourth-hottest July day on record, the National Weather Service says.

Of course, expect more heat and potentially more record-breaking today.

Always remember to stay hydrated and indoors when you can, especially during the excessive heat warning.

High: 110

Low: 83
