    The previous high shattered by 5 degrees Fahrenheit, with the mercury climbing to 127 F. The old mark of 122 F was last tied in 2013.

          It’s a record for that day of the year. Local weather casters have been using this for years too: News at 11, record heat coming!

          It’s noteworthy, but the title could be clearer about a daily record vs overall.

            Interesting thought popped into my head. Is it technically fraud? The headline is intentionally misleading to get you to click, which will show you ads that gets them money. The only gap is the it isn’t your money they get.

              I suppose if the advertisers were defrauded it could be, but that’s probably only something that the Ad networks could be capable of I think.
