Heat Advisory Friday
SUMMARY: A heat advisory is in effect Friday as scorching temperatures continue across the region. Thursday saw a high of 94°F, with heat indices reaching up to 110°F in some rural areas. Friday’s forecast calls for highs in the mid-90s, with humidity pushing the “feels like” temperature to 105°F or more. Storm chances remain minimal due to a stalled front to the north. Overnight lows won’t offer much relief, staying near 80°F. The oppressive heat is expected to persist into next week with little change. Residents are urged to stay hydrated, limit outdoor activity, and expect only isolated cooling showers.

Mammoth Cave National Park discovers another new species of ancient shark
SUMMARY: A new ancient shark species, *Macadens olsoni*, was discovered at Mammoth Cave National Park through fossil research. Notable for its unique tooth whorl adapted to crush small sea creatures, this shark was less than a foot long and likely ate mollusks and worms. The fossils date back 340–335 million years to when the area was a warm, shallow sea. Named in honor of Mammoth Cave and retired scientist Rickard Olson, the discovery was made by researchers from the National Park Service, Mammoth Cave, and the Smithsonian. This finding broadens understanding of ancient marine ecosystems and highlights the park’s paleontological importance.
