Hey everyone! The US East Coast is feeling the heat like never before. A dangerous heat dome is rolling through from Washington, DC to Boston, pushing 'feels like' temperatures past 100°F 🌡️. Over 80 million people are under heat advisories, making this one of the most intense summer episodes in recent memory.
While the West Coast enjoys a surprisingly cooler summer, the East is in full sizzle mode. Experts point to climate change as a key driver behind these record-breaking conditions, as extreme heat waves become more frequent and intense.
Remember to stay hydrated, check on your neighbors, and keep cool however you can—whether that means chilling with your favorite series or hanging out with friends. Stay safe and keep an eye on local weather updates as the heat persists into the weekend!
