Heat Wave Continues in Southwest U.S.

Now to more on that historic heat wave in the southwestern US that continues to hit states with temperatures well over 100 degrees according to the National weather service. Phoenix Arizona is set to exceed 110 degrees for the 12th consecutive day, just six days shy of being an all time record that was set in 1974. It looks like there may be no relief in sight with temperatures climbing across the south, including humid conditions in Florida and South Texas. That could be life threatening.
