Triple-Digit Heat Hits 110 Million Americans

Description

A "heat dome" is currently affecting 110 million Americans. A heat dome is a ridge of high pressure that traps hot air for an extended period of time, which has caused people to endure the sweltering conditions for at least two days now. Heat advisories and warnings have been issued across the country and most states are experiencing a heat index between 100 and 110 degrees. The National Weather Service recommends limiting outdoor activities and staying hydrated.
