Phoenix hits at least 110 for 19th straight day, breaking U.S. city records in worldwide heat wave

Phoenix hits at least 110 for 19th straight day, breaking U.S. city records in worldwide heat wave
Well, good morning. And you know, to give you some more perspective when we started our day here around 1 a.m. it was already 101 degrees outside. But now that we're beginning to approach three weeks with high temperatures above 110 degrees. This is not over yet. It's hot out there. No, really hot. Feels like you're actually on fire after you're out here for *** while. Over 65 million people across the US are under heat alerts in 14 states. Tuesday, spanning from coast to coast in Phoenix, Arizona, residents have endured 18 consecutive days at 110 degrees or higher. The record for the longest streak is expected to be broken today and the high temperatures will continue in Buckeye. The heat is being blamed for the death of *** man who was walking to *** fire station after his bike got *** flat tire over the weekend. In this case, the temperatures caught up with him dangerously high. Temperature is being recorded across the region. El Paso, Texas reached 100 degrees for the 32nd straight day with the National weather service tweeting. There's no end in sight. The state's electrical grid is feeling the strain from the record demand, but holding up thanks to additional resources. So we're seeing energy storage and solar power really playing *** much more dramatic role than they were playing even just *** couple of short years ago. Now, keeping cool and staying out of the scorching sun should be the priority and it's nearly impossible for you to be outside, especially in an unshaded place right now and keep up with the amount of fluids that you could drink. Ideally, you'd be in the air conditioner or get misers on you. And the heat streak is also taking *** toll on firefighters with the city of Phoenix reporting that roughly eight and 10 calls on the part of firefighters are not fires but rather medical emergencies, people falling or should say succumbing to heat exhaustion. That's the latest reporting here in Phoenix, I Mike Valeo. Back to you.

Phoenix hits at least 110 for 19th straight day, breaking U.S. city records in worldwide heat wave
The extreme heat scorching Phoenix set a new record Tuesday, the 19th consecutive day temperatures hit at least 110 degrees Fahrenheit in a summer of suffering echoing around much of the globe. As human-caused climate change and a newly formed El Nino are combining to shatter heat records worldwide, the Phoenix region stands apart among major metropolitan areas in the U.S.No other major city 바카라 게임 웹사이트 defined as the 25 most populous in the United States 바카라 게임 웹사이트 has had any streak of 110-degree days or 90-degree nights longer than Phoenix, said weather historian Christopher Burt of the Weather Company.National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration climate data scientists Russ Vose and Ken Kunkel found no large cities with that streak of warming, but smaller places such as Death Valley and Needles, California; and Casa Grande, Arizona, have had longer streaks. Death Valley has had an 84-day streak of 110-degree temperatures and a 47-day streak of nighttime temperatures that haven't fallen below 90, Vose said.For Phoenix, it바카라 게임 웹사이트s not only the brutal daytime highs that are deadly. The lack of a nighttime cooldown can rob people without access to air conditioning of the break from the heat that their bodies need to continue to function properly.With Tuesday바카라 게임 웹사이트s low of 94, the city has had nine straight days of temperatures that didn바카라 게임 웹사이트t go below 90 at night, breaking another record there, according to National Weather Service meteorologist Matt Salerno, who called it 바카라 게임 웹사이트pretty miserable when you don바카라 게임 웹사이트t have any recovery overnight.바카라 게임 웹사이트On Monday, the city set a record for the hottest overnight low temperature: 95.Some 200 cooling and hydration centers have been set up across the metro area to cool residents, but most shut down between 4 p.m. and 7 p.m. due to staffing and funding issues.바카라 게임 웹사이트Long-term exposure to heat is more difficult to withstand than single hot days, especially if it is not cooling off at night enough to sleep well,바카라 게임 웹사이트 said Katharine Jacobs, director of the Center for Climate Adaptation Science and Solutions at the University of Arizona.The last time Phoenix didn바카라 게임 웹사이트t reach 110 F was June 29, when it hit 108.
