Heat Dome Hits New York: Unprecedented June Temperatures

Doug McIntyre and David Callaway from Climate Crisis 247 discuss extreme weather conditions in New York and London. Doug reports a heat index of 105 degrees in New York, which is unprecedented for June. David mentions that London is experiencing unusually warm weather at 73-75 degrees Fahrenheit. Doug explains the phenomenon of a heat dome, which originated in Las Vegas and Phoenix, moved through the Midwest, and now affects the East Coast, with Boston expecting a heat index of 107. This pattern suggests temporary relief, but high temperatures are expected to return next week, highlighting the growing impact of climate change.
