That's the highest in the country, since things have cooled off in some of the bigger states like Texas & Florida.
Today may have been a "one off" as the numbers can be a little erratic from day to day. Our 7 day average tied the Sept. 26th previous high of 33 deaths/day, but again today's number may be an abberation. Yesterday was 25, Friday was 26, Thursday was 0. Perhaps some hospitals only report once or twice a week?
