"Record-smashing daytime temperatures near 100 degrees are expected for millions from the Plains to the East Coast this week, while nighttime temperatures may stay above 80 in some metropolitan areas."
" A massive heat dome enveloping much of the central and eastern U.S. this week will lead to levels of heat and humidity not seen in June in many years, warn AccuWeather meteorologists.
High temperatures approaching and even exceeding 100 degrees are expected over more than three dozen states stretching from the Plains to New England through at least the middle of the week, challenging many long-standing records.
There will be little relief at night, with some urban areas failing to fall below 80 for multiple nights in a row, increasing the risk of heat-related ailments such as heat exhaustion or stroke."
