ORLANDO, Fla. \u2014 Central Florida is heating up as a late-week heat wave sends temperatures soaring to near-record levels.<\/p>\n

Afternoon highs are expected to reach the mid to upper 90s on Thursday, with Orlando forecast to hit 97 degrees. <\/p>\n

That is just one degree shy of the city\u2019s record high for the date of 98 degrees, which was set in 1932.<\/p>\n

A Heat Advisory is in effect for the entire region from 11 a.m. until 8 p.m. as heat index values are expected to climb to 104 degrees or higher during the afternoon.<\/p>\n

The combination of high temperatures and humidity can quickly lead to heat-related illnesses, especially for people spending extended time outdoors.<\/p>\n

The steamy pattern isn\u2019t expected to end anytime soon. <\/p>\n

Forecasters say hot and humid conditions will continue into the weekend, and additional Heat Advisories are likely over the next several days.<\/p>\n
