An already dangerous weekslong heat wave will only worsen this weekend as a heat dome intensifies and reaches peak strength over parts of the Western United States.

Title is a little misleading as they are referring to Death Valley - but it looks like records could be broken in a lot of areas of the southwest US with temperatures approaching 120 degrees.

We are entering the "find out" phase a lot sooner and quicker than even my pessimistic self could have predicted.

    You're right lol. It's our winter right now and I'm in the hottest part of the country where winter is 29c for us. I just assumed that we always had hotter weather than the US.
