New Kentucky High Temperature Record???

Here you go...it's official. A new high temperature record for Kentucky has been set. Looks like Booneville in Owsley county at 116 degrees!

Well, ok...something's wrong with this picture. Hmm, mid and upper 70's surrounding a 116 degree reading. Wait a minute!! Somebody's trying to cheat here. 'No record for you!'

Of course, a heat burst could have occurred since there were thunderstorms in the vicinity, but I seriously doubt the reading.
