Tampa reached 100 degrees for the first time in recorded history. It's a rare milestone for Florida, where humidity, sea breezes and frequent storms usually keep temperatures just below the triple-digit mark.

The thermometer at Tampa International Airport topped out at 95 on Monday afternoon, below the 100 degrees it reached on Sunday, which was the highest temperature recorded in Tampa since weather record-keeping began in 1890. However, humidity pushed the feels-like temperature to a heavy 117 degrees at about 3 p.m.

Tampa has broken the all-time temperature record after hitting 100 degrees on Sunday, according to the National Weather Service. The previous record of 99 degrees was set on June 26, 2020.
