Unusually high temperatures are expected in the eastern and large parts of the United States in June. From the Midwest to the Northeast, degrees will skyrocket. Several temperature records are expected to be broken and the heat will continue into the coming week.
The US Weather Service warns of weather-related deaths in online media: “Heat is the leading cause of weather-related deaths most years. Take them seriously.” At the beginning of June, Las Vegas measured 44 degrees. It reached 50 degrees in Death Valley.
