NEW YORK — A deadly heat wave that has persisted for weeks continues to grip a swath of the United States.
The National Weather Service has issued heat alerts that are in effect on Monday for 40 million Americans across at least a dozen states, from Montana to Texas and Florida.
On Monday, temperatures are forecast to reach or exceed 110 degrees in Palm Springs, California; Phoenix, Arizona; and Tucson, Arizona. Heat index values -- a measure of how hot it really feels when relative humidity is combined with the air temperature -- are expected to be in the 100s from Texas to Florida again.
El Paso, Texas, has been on a record-smashing stretch of 38 straight days with temperatures at or above 100 degrees. This is expected to continue this week and may finally come to an end over the weekend. The city's previous record of 23 consecutive days was set in 1994.
