"Phoenix's Record-Breaking Heat Wave Continues, Scorching at 110+ Degrees for 19th Straight Day"
Phoenix, Arizona, has experienced a dangerous 19th consecutive day of scorching heat, setting a record for U.S. cities. The city's streak of 110 degrees Fahrenheit or more is unprecedented among major cities in the United States. The extreme heat, caused by human-induced climate change and a newly formed El Nino, has turned Phoenix into a ghost town and poses health risks to residents without access to air conditioning. The global heat wave has also led to record-breaking temperatures in other parts of the world, with wildfires, floods, and droughts exacerbating the situation.
