A severe heat wave is currently engulfing much of the United States, particularly impacting Northeastern cities like Boston, New York, and Philadelphia. Meteorologists warn that this heat wave, influenced by a heat dome of high pressure, marks one of the most intense in over a decade. With nearly three-quarters of the population exposed to temperatures over 90 degrees Fahrenheit, and many experiencing triple-digit heat on Tuesday, public health risks are heightened. This unusual early summer heat poses a challenge for residents who are yet to acclimate to these extreme conditions.
This is a three-day stretch of dangerous heat that will test the mettle of city dwellers who are most vulnerable to oppressive heat waves.
An intense and nearly historic weather pattern is cooking much of America under a dangerous heat dome with triple-digit temperatures.
