An unrelenting heat wave is turning America into a giant oven this week, with temperatures smashing records from coast to coast. Over 100 million people are sweltering under heat alerts as thermometers hit dangerous levels rarely seen this early in summer. 🔥
The Midwest and Mid-Atlantic regions are experiencing temperatures 15-25°F above normal, according to the Weather Prediction Center. California isn't spared either – parts of the state could bake under 110°F+ through Monday. 🏜️
\"This isn't just uncomfortable – it's life-threatening for vulnerable populations,\" experts warn, comparing the weather pattern to a slow-moving Game of Thrones dragon attack. 🐉 Hydration stations and cooling centers have popped up in cities like Chicago and DC as asphalt melts and power grids strain.
While some TikTokers are turning sidewalks into #FryAnEgg challenges 🍳, officials urge everyone to:
Check on elderly neighbors
Limit outdoor activities
Recognize heatstroke symptoms
Will this become the new normal? Climate scientists point to concerning patterns, but for now, America's main priority is surviving the summer inferno. ❄️ Stay cool out there!
