Summary
A major heat wave is sweeping across the U.S., with temperatures soaring into the 90s and hitting 100°F in many areas—especially as the Fourth of July weekend approaches. Humidity is adding to the misery, making it feel like 100 to 110°F or more. The oppressive heat is hitting the Great Lakes, mid-Atlantic, and Mississippi/Ohio River valleys, affecting cities from New York and Philly to Chicago, St. Louis, Detroit, Dallas, and Memphis. The National Weather Service warns this isn’t a short-lived event—scorching temps will linger through next weekend, even at night, with lows staying in the 70s. With the heat index making conditions feel even more dangerous, experts urge people to stay hydrated, avoid strenuous outdoor activity, and seek air conditioning or cool spaces to stay safe.
