While the entire Lakes Region is getting set for a cool down, parts of southern Missouri have one more day of excessive heat to deal with.

The National Weather Service in Springfield has extended the Excessive Heat Warning one more day, through 7:00 tonight, for all of southern Missouri including the Lakes Region. Temperatures in the mid 90s will persist with possible Heat Index Readings from 105-110.
