Lordy, lordy, lordy. It’s a hot one today.

While you were still eating breakfast, the sun was already hard at work breaking heat records.

The local National Weather Service office reports that Eureka broke a 38-year-old temperature record this morning.

A record high of 76 degrees was recorded at 9:45 a.m., and there’s still plenty of day to go around. The previous record for September 2, was 75 degrees set back in 1979.

Stay tuned, we’ll let you know the final high at the end of the day.
