Heat Dome vs. 2012’s Record-Breaking Wave | Fayetteville News

This summer’s heat dome may feel brutal, but it’s nothing compared to Raleigh’s record-shattering 2012 heat wave — nine straight days over 100 degrees, including three at 105. The human toll is real, reminding us how vulnerable we are to extreme weather. While we’ve seen 106°F here in 2024, the Carolinas’ all-time record remains 113°F in Columbia, SC, set during that same 2012 blast. Relief is on the way next week as high pressure breaks and rain returns — but for now, buckle up.
