Extreme Heat Sizzles Across the U.S.

Dangerous heat waves are hitting the U.S., as millions attempt to find ways to stay cool before summer has even officially begun.

Extreme heat alerts were issued from Iowa to Ohio, where temperatures upwards of 90 degrees were recorded. The hot weather is expected to move into parts of the upper northeast including Maine though the latter half of this week.

With high temperatures on the rise, it's crucial to stay informed, hydrated, and prepared. If possible, avoid outdoor activities during the hottest parts of the day. Some city officials across the country are setting up cooling centers to help ease the burden on residents without access to air conditioning.
