  28. Dangerous heat continues to bake areas of the West from #WashingtonState to #Arizona

    A prolonged and expansive heat wave will continue across the West into early week, resulting in record-breaking highs from the #Cascades to the #DesertSouthwest.

    "The all-time record of 117 in #LasVegas could be broken Sunday, and daily records in Vegas could be challenged or broken nearly every day from today through at least next Thursday."

    By Alyssa Glenny, AccuWeather Meteorologist

    Published Jul 6, 2024

    Key Takeaways:

    "Over the upcoming days, all-time record high temperatures will be challenged across portions of the West. Daytime highs from Washington to Arizona can range upwards of 100 F, with some Desert Southwest locations soaring above 115 F daily.

    "Factors such as a recent lack of rainfall, low relative humidity levels and stifling temperatures will create an elevated #wildfire threat.

    "Harsh conditions over the upcoming days can dramatically raise the risk for heat-related illnesses, such as heat stroke and heat exhaustion.

    UV indexes categorized as 'extreme'

    Copious amounts of sunshine will continue to expand across the West through at least midweek, providing little relief for residents in terms of any shade gleaming from cloud cover. In the heart of the Southwest, locations like Las Vegas and Phoenix are forecast to have max ultraviolet (UV) index levels categorized as extreme for much of this week, ranging between 11 and 12."
