Las Vegas and Phoenix To Endure Extreme Heat and Drought This Summer

Douglas McIntyre, Editor-in-Chief at Climate Crisis 24/7, reports that NOAA’s latest seasonal forecast predicts dangerously high temperatures and ongoing drought for the Southwest. Cities like Phoenix and Las Vegas are expected to face extreme heat, potentially surpassing last year’s streaks of 110°F days. With over 200 days of drought already affecting Las Vegas, McIntyre warns the situation will likely become more severe as summer intensifies.
