Charlotte football fans can relax and get ready for some football. The NFL lockout is over, and we’ll be watching preseason games in August. As fans, we are hoping the Panthers have a better season this year. Obviously, the great part of last year’s terrible season is that we get the number one draft pick,  quarterback Cam Newton, and he is happy to be back at training camp.

But there is a heat wave headed to Charlotte, and the NFL training camp might not be a lot of fun some days. Highs of near 100 degrees are expected this week.

Fans who are going to be venturing out of their homes and apartments in Charlotte, NC to head to Wofford University for Panthers' practice will be dealing with 100-degree temperatures and a heat index around 110 degrees. Take plenty of water, and stay in the shade.

The first preseason game for Carolina is August 13th, who is having the Super Bowl Party at Auston Woods? It is never too soon to hope.
