Heat Wave to Hit Two-Thirds of the U.S. Here’s What to Expect

So I get that the infrastructure isn't as well in place to deal with things like this but where I live 100+ isn't that absurd, and that's nothing to say for places like Arizonia which is two blocks away from the sun and 90 is considered cool, with 100+ being a common occurrence. So what makes this particularly bad?

We see a lot more weather hype in the news than we used to. Winter storms have names. We get &quot;arctic vortexes&quot;. And normal summer temps are flogged as a massive heat wave.<p>Someone in the biz was telling me that the reason is that many &#x27;news&#x27; orgs would rather have an article about the weather than about a lot of other subjects, so they&#x27;ve steadily increased the number of weather related coverage.

Now NYT disables reading from incognito. Lame.<p><a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;archive.is&#x2F;cF01U" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;archive.is&#x2F;cF01U</a>

Slow news day? Not like this is the first heat wave to ever hit more than a couple states. Drink lots of water, move slow, go to work early and leave late (its cooler and less people to get edgy with!)
