"Excessive heat warnings and heat advisories are currently in place as a massive heat wave is "consuming" most parts of the Midwest into the Southern US, according to the National Weather Service (NWS).

The extreme heat is reportedly causing hazy, hot, and humid conditions that could persist in the latter part of the week.

The NWS consider the weather hazards as dangerous conditions, which could cause heat-related illnesses and even death as it did in recent years, including last month."
