Extreme "Heat Dome" To Fry US With Record Temperatures Up To 121F For Several Weeks

What this means is that over 80 percent of the U.S. population – encompassing 265 million people – can expect sweltering heat over the next week with highs exceeding 90. Another 45 million people will be facing highs in the triple digits.

Additionally, we can expect a full season of lethal heat ranging from 90°F to 121°F, not to mention extreme tropical storms, wildfires, and extreme weather related to La Niña conditions, reports the Independent.

Huh, I doubt it , but several days of 97+ in Nashville soon.
We will be heading to Asheville. If not cool enough there it'll be Maine.
July and August suck in TN. January is a piece of cake most years.

After reading the 1st post, I was going to ask if it might could wipe them out.

Every year, I spend July thru about mid-September wondering why in God's name I live where I do.

Good news, most of the country will be sharing your pain on this one.

Impossible lol. Yeah, but in a couple of weeks this heat wave will break and I'll still be here in humidity hell struggling to breathe.

The other day, I happened to look and the dew point here was 77*?!? Any higher and I'm pretty sure people start leaving vapor trails when they walk to the mailbox.

Can't afford to do that, so I just moved to Monroe County instead.
