I'd go with local Lubbock weather stations over national weather services/broadcasts... The high still sits at 104 for Friday, but either way... Friday will be extremely hot. As someone else mentioned, humidity can play a factor but Lubbock is mostly known for dry heat rather than humidity. For the sake of fans, when it gets this hot here in TX the operations division and athletics put out refueling/hydration stations around the venues that offer free ice water... Not much, but better than nothing.
