A barrage of heat waves have plagued the U.S. this summer and more above-average temperatures are on the way next week, affecting more of the country than those before it.

Although not as extreme as the past few heat spells, this one will span from coast to coast due to a strong heat dome elevating temperatures even higher during the hottest time of the year. The epicenter of the heat will build across the northern and central Plains -- a region that has largely escaped the relentless, record-breaking heat the past few months.

Heat warnings and advisories are already in effect for some areas of the Midwest, where heat index values on Saturday will begin to climb into the triple digits. More advisories are likely to be issued for the week ahead as the heat builds. "Overnight lows are also expected to be quite warm so additional heat warnings may be needed if current forecast trends continue ," theBy end of this weekend, the ridge will expand into the northern Plains after a brief lull in the already torrid temperatures some areas have felt all summer.

Southeastern Montana, northeastern Wyoming, North Dakota and South Dakota will see the hottest day on Monday when temperatures reach the century mark in most places. Parts of northern Nevada and southern Idaho also see high temperatures peak Monday. "After only having seven days of 90 degree [32 C] or higher temperatures all year so far, we are looking at eight in a row ... at least," said CNN meteorologist Brandon Miller about the heat coming to Atlanta, Georgia.
