A significant heat wave will begin in California on Tuesday, with searing temperatures that could last through the long holiday weekend, affecting deserts, valleys, and coast. Other Western states will also experience 10 to 20 degrees above average temperatures.
The heat wave poses particular dangers due to warm nighttime temperatures, limiting the usual overnight relief. As the heat continues across the West, the risk of heat-related illnesses escalates, affecting the entire population.
