US Heat Wave is gradually moving East with a very unpleasant humid heat and indexes into the 110s in Illinois.
Nights remain very warm.
The heat will keep moving East later this week.
In the meanwhile Phoenix AZ is at its 93th consecutive day >100F.

As Earth’s climate warms, heat waves are becoming more frequent and severe. The health dangers of extreme heat have scientists and medical experts increasingly concerned. #heatwave

50 degree celsius

[Peter Dynes @PGDynes]

🌡️ Over halfway to boiling point!
1️⃣ Basrah-Hussen (#Iraq) 50.5°C
2️⃣ Ahwaz (#Iran) 50.4°C
3️⃣ Amarah (Iraq) 50.4°C
🔥 At the current rate of warming, will this region be even habitable by 2030? The #climate crisis is no longer the future; it's the burning present.

[World Meteorological Organization @WMO]

🌍 This map shows that at least ten countries have reported more than 50°C temperatures in the past year.

🌡️Heat directly impacts people and amplifies the risks of wildfires, droughts, water shortages, and food insecurity.

The Stafford Act authorizes the President to provide federal assistance to affected jurisdictions by
declaring a specific episode of extreme heat to be an “emergency” or a “major disaster.”

It is apprehended that spike in number of deaths in Noida, Uttar Pradesh, India can be attributed to heatwave. Northwest India has experienced unprecedented heatwave this year. The night time heat has made impacts worse.

[ANI @ANI]

#WATCH | Noida, UP: Noida CMO Dr Sunil Sharma says, "In the last 3 days, the no. of dead bodies have increased. On June 18-20, we received 75 dead bodies. 20 of them were brought dead. And out of those 20, ten of them were unclaimed... The capacity of the postmortem house is 10-12 bodies... But we have tied up with hospitals and now our capacity is increased... Three doctors have been appointed to perform the postmortem on the bodies... The reason for the deaths can be confirmed after the postmortem but the possibility that the reason for the deaths is heatwave, cannot be ruled out..."

Heatwaves are considered local disasters, but their increasing severity will necessitate a broader approach. Implementing solutions such as improving & restoring water bodies, increasing vegetation cover, & promoting cool roofs will enhance comfort.
