More than 25 million Americans are expected to endure temperatures topping 100 degrees this week as yet another heat wave descends on the country, adding more risks from wildfires already burning across the west.
. The U.S. is far from the only country dealing with wildfires born of extreme temperatures. Russia is fighting more than 190 forest fires in Siberia, where temperatures reached 118 degrees in June.
. “We can see how it’s getting hotter in Yakutia every year. We are living through the hottest, driest summer in the history of meteorological measurements since the end of the 19th century.”, wildfires — fueled by a record-breaking heat wave that saw temperatures reach 117 degrees — have burned more than 120,000 acres and driven hundreds of people from their homes.
On Wednesday, Sicily may have set a temperature record for the European continent, hitting 119.7 degrees. “With the widespread heat expected, there is an enhanced risk to sensitive groups. Drink lots of water, check on neighbors, friends and family often, and locate to a cool space during the peak heating time frames,” the Weather Service in Portland wrote in an advisory.
