The unusually early heatwave in the Northeast, Mid-Atlantic States, and Midwest last week is expected to ease by Monday, offering relief to tens of millions of Americans.
Regions in the Southeast and Southern Plains are forecasted to remain hot, with potential highs in the low 100s, posing dangerous levels of heat.
Nearly 120 million people were under heat advisory alerts at the peak last Thursday, with numbers staying above 100 million for at least four consecutive days.
More than the heat itself, the shock came from its early arrival, as expressed by Shenay Smith, impacted by the soaring heat index in New Castle, Del.
