Weather forecast for the East Coast cities of New York, Philadelphia, Washington and Baltimore, and Midwestern and Great Lakes cities including Chicago, Indianapolis, St. Louis and Detroit is not good as residents of these cities will feel the heat this week. Southern cities including Dallas, Little Rock, Arkansas, and Memphis, Tennessee, will also see high temperatures. A number of big cities could see their highest temperatures of the year so far as they host World Cup matches and celebrations for America’s 250th anniversary. High heat will last into next weekend across the Great Plains, the Southeast and the mid-Atlantic, the weather service said.
A long and dangerous heat wave will blast a large swath of the United States this week, the National Weather Service said, with temperatures rising ahead of the July Fourth holiday and feeling even hotter because of the high humidity that's arriving with it. Several days of high temperatures will settle in across the lower Great Lakes, the mid-Atlantic and the Mississippi and Ohio River valleys, the weather service said.
