Extreme Heat and Wildfires Sweep the Nation

A blistering heat wave is sweeping across the central and eastern U.S., with temperatures soaring above 100 degrees and humidity making it feel even worse—potentially hitting 115 in some areas.

Nights won’t offer relief, with lows stuck in the 70s and 80s, raising the risk of heat-related illness. Meanwhile, the West is grappling with deadly wildfires fueled by dry, windy conditions—three firefighters lost their lives near Colorado-Utah as flames raced out of control.
