A deadly heatwave has swept across the U.S. Southwest, bringing record-breaking temperatures and leaving millions under weather alerts. Temperatures soared past 110 degrees Fahrenheit, with Death Valley reaching around 50 degrees Celsius earlier in the week. The heat dome, which previously killed 61 in Mexico, has set numerous heat records in cities such as Phoenix, Sacramento, and Las Vegas. Forecasters warn that the heatwave will maintain its grip for at least another day, with little relief expected until monsoon thunderstorms arrive. Ocean temperatures are also at all-time highs, indicating a potentially unforgiving summer ahead. More than 34 million people are under weather alerts, and another major heatwave could strike the Southwest beginning June 20th.
