This is the hottest day of 2010!

Just after three Wednesday afternoon, the mercury topped 29 degrees, which beats the previous hottest day of July 9th when we reached 28.8 degrees.

This hot weather also means 660News meteorologist David Spence’s weather guarantee has been beat!  If you want to win some cash because of the heat, sign up for our weather guarantee contest.

The guaranteed a high was 25, but he has missed that by more than three degrees and will be giving away the jackpot tomorrow morning.
