"Labor Day weekend is going to be the hottest weekend of the entire year. \u00A0Temperatures are forecast to hover around 100 degrees for Friday, Saturday and Sunday across the entire state. The last time it was this hot was July 9-11, when it was at or about 100 degrees three consecutive days, but this occurred midweek, so this will be the hottest weekend of the entire year.Many will tailgate at the OU football game. Make sure you include some water in your beverage consumption when tailgating. \u00A0In Norman, it will be around 100 degrees in the afternoon, and only fall to about 98 for kickoff at 6 p.m. If your body overheats, you could certainly suffer from a heat-related illness and miss the entire game sitting in a hospital.So why is it so hot at the unofficial end to summer? Simply put, the rain has stopped falling. \u00A0Friday will be the 14th consecutive day without rainfall in Oklahoma City. That is the longest dry stretch of the entire year. \u00A0Record rain from May through early August kept temperatures cooler. Now that it is drier, it is getting hotter.Footer Weather"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
