The latest heat wave began over the weekend in the Southwest and Great Plains, before beginning to move toward the eastern U.S. The National Weather Service forecasted widespread temperatures of 95-105 degrees Fahrenheit, saying that “even for mid-July, this heat is expected to be exceptionally rare for some locations and produce numerous daily temperature records, while potentially nearing monthly and all-time records.”
“It is recommended that residents, who are able, remain indoors during peak heating hours,” Brandon Buckingham, an AccuWeather meteorologist, said in a statement. “If you have to be outside, consider taking numerous breaks, utilizing shaded areas, wearing light-colored clothing and staying hydrated.”
Some of the cities expected to see the most punishing temperatures amid the heat wave have likely already hit their highs.
But for others, the highest temperatures are still ahead.
Cities like Tempe, Arizona, and Phoenix, Arizona will continue to see temperatures reaching or surpassing 110 degrees Fahrenheit on Wednesday. And triple-digit temperatures are expected to drag on throughout the week in some cities, including Fort Lauderdale, Florida; Las Vegas, Nevada; and Brownsville, Texas.
Some cities will see intense rainfall even sooner. On Tuesday, the National Weather Service in Salt Lake City warned residents that there was an increased risk for flash flooding that evening because of the heavy rainfall. In Billings, the National Weather Service advised locals that the heat will continue throughout the week, but that it’ll also be much more humid, leading to possible thunderstorms.
