100 In NC, Returning to Greensburg?
Several locations in North Carolina hit the century mark Saturday, including Albemarle, where I was born, and where we drove through this afternoon on the way to Mom's house. The RealFeel temperature was 107 at Albemarle and 110 at Erwin, NC, which also hit 100.
In other news, below are photos from the Associated Press* illustrating the conundrum of whether residents will wish to return to Greensburg Kansas.

Three months after the F5 twister killed 10 people and flattened more than 90 percent of Greensburg, a destruction so thorough that experts warn it could be a half-decade or more before the community fully returns, some locals are wrestling with whether to come back.
