More than 70 million people were under heat alerts from the Midwest to New England. The heat index reached 100 degrees in Chicago, Washington, D.C., and other cities. There was heavy rain and the threat of flooding in parts of the South, and more than 20 wildfires in the West. NBC News’ Maggie Vespa reports.

Same BS every year !!!!! 😂😂😂😂
yes!! that is the orange lunatic jeesus trump.
So summers have been breaking heat records year after year since way back?
@@universalmonster4972 since the early 1700’s at the end of the Maunder minimum.
@@mitchellcrane9809 you’ll have to explain more than that or provide a link if you think you have evidence that shows climate change isn’t happening due to massive dumping of CO2 from burning fossil fuels.
Any chance to promote climate change scare.
Enjoy this mild weather, it’s only getting hotter with each passing day until… POOF!
Complaining about 90% come to west Texas more like 105
you got that right. 80 degrees you guys are probably grabbing your jackets
It’s called BBQ party at a backyard
I am 57 and work as a mechanic and have worked in the heat for almost 40 yrs. Relax people it heat like every year. Get in the shade, use a fan and drink . You do relies people live in deserts with extreme hear and survive – so chill.
Your individual experience does not tell the story of the planet. So many people think they’re the main character 😂
Yeah they talk like it’s the first hot summer 😂
@@Timmylongstrokeso you remember summers breaking heat records year after year? I’m 46 and I don’t remember this happening when I was growing up in the 80’s and 90’s.
Oh look… another graduate from At-Home Republican Jesus School who doesn’t understand concepts like “record-breaking”.
@@Timmylongstroke Is that why the insurance companies are pulling out of certain markets already, Timmy?
Were all going to die. This is the end
That’s definitely a fact bud, everyone will one day die! This flesh is only temporary till we that believe go to our true home forever. I am ready. 🙏
here is your binky you will be ok
Nonsense
Guess God does answer prayers.
No why?
@@imtheeastgermanguy5431 well earth is dying. A good prayer answered huh?
I miss the winter
I understand that comment. I’m from Michigan and have been in Texas 2 years and you cant go outside for 6 months because of the heat. I long for a snowstorm 🥰
Summers are supposed to be hot. Doesn’t mean climate change.
Have summers been breaking heat records year after year since way back? Because that’s what it’s been doing lately for the past few years.
And if summer is breaking heat wave records year after year that tells us something… can you guess?
It’s not even summer yet
^^^/ this is the flat earthers 😂
Record breaking everything… doesn’t mean climate change. Enjoy denial while it last
@@slugo915 winters suppose to be cold but they haven’t… hmm
Every year is a heat wave. Is this really news?
Has summer been breaking heat records every year since way back, because that’s what it’s been doing lately for the past few years.
And if summer is breaking heat wave records year after year that tells us something… can you guess?
I’ll give you time to think 😘😘😘
@@RockBrentwood Seems nothing bothers you including the suffering of the thousands whose lives have already been wrecked by climate change.
@@universalmonster4972 Breaking records is the rising Urban Heat Island effect, along with the thermometer change from mercury.
That’s all it is.
@@grzlbrwhat do you mean by “urban heat island” and what is going on with the thermometer change from mercury?
@@RockBrentwoodI only agree with the women thing. Everything else is pretty weak. There are situations and temperatures where it’s dangerous for the human body. Moving and running is a good thing and yes it’s heating up the body also but if the outside temperature and humidity is too much than your body can’t cool down. Yes ventilating can help and good amount of water and nutrition but like for children it can become dangerous fast. There are heat strokes and deaths around the world in areas where people are actually used to heat but they can’t stand it anymore, like in India, south east Asia, Africa and so.
Its June…tell me when it didn’t get hot😂
So summers have been breaking heat records year after year since way back? I don’t remember that happening, do you?
It’s like Timmy doesn’t know what “extreme” “record-breaking” or “unprecedented” means. Must have gone to At-Home Republican Jesus School to have such a poor, Trump-like, vocabulary.
Before global warming, it used to snow in Miami each July.
When I was a kid we had things like hurricane season and summer.
We were also using plastics to save trees and attempting to prevent an ice age. 🤳🦄
Not too many people remember the ice age thing. I remember it , first it was global cooling then it changed to global warming, now it is climate change – the great catch all phrase. If it is a little cooler then normal it is climate change. It is a little warmer then normal – climate change, climate change it covers all the excuses. They are are right climate change is real and has been for millions of years.
Maybe is that weather manipulation thing like what happened in Dubai
BEAUTIFUL!! I love hot weather! I’m from west Texas, 100 degree heat is normal here.
With the ongoing climate change crisis, the Planet call ill-afford to have 24-hour news coverage from an environmental standpoint. It creates a carbon footprint that is both enormous and unnecessary. Good back to news at 7, 12, 6 and 11. It is a terrible waste of energy to hear the same news every 30 minutes. If you’re that much of a news junkie, use the Internet.

Working in a kitchen in Ohio. The temperature inside with the air conditioning on was 107. It was a rough day.
Hope you and your coworkers stay safe!
Isn’t there any employee rights how high can the temperature be
@@imtheeastgermanguy5431there’s probably none because it not common to get THAT high
We won’t learn until we’re taken to our knees!Let’s hope Trump keeps denying climate change cause I want to see devastation,it’s our only salvation.Good luck trying to stay cool folks.
How do you plan on changing the temperature of the earth?
Do you have some alien technology to alter Earth’s obliquity, precession, and orbital eccentricity?
Cloud seeding in fool force in Ohio. We r supposed to be sleeping but I’m not and I hear and see it.
Funny guy🤣🤣🤣
blessing to live in socal
here in Lansing Michigan, it hit 85F. I had to turn on a fan.
y’all should consider relocating due to climate change like I did.
No thanks I’ll stay where I was born and be buried alongside my family. Grass isn’t always greener elsewhere. This life is just temporary till we go to our true home forever🙏
Who cares
Google and NBC are kings of disinformation!
This is Florida like every day 😂
Yeah probably but it’s kind of normal there. If those temperatures are happen in other northern areas like New York, Canada or Alaska then it’s probably hard for those people who aren’t used to the heat
Just one more reason why FL sucks.
@@kenhasibar2624 I guess it depends where you live in Florida. I won’t mind to have a huge garden there to plant lovely coconut trees, papaya, banana and other delicious stuff like herbs and vegetables. How great can that be to harvest and eat the own organic food ❤️😊😎🍻
Magnifique. Feu a volonte.
Just wait until you you actually realize what’s happening…😂😂😂… “Hey, ya’ll remember when it was JUST a little hot outside…” Jesus, my King, how much longer must I tolerate these fools???
BuT cLiMaTe ChAnGe IsN’T ReAL!1!!1! ReEeEeeeeEEEE!!!!!
3:04 Wow that’s a lot of records broken!
Republicans have been denying the science about climate change for decades America if you care about your children you need to vote out every Republican politician or your children will not have a world to live in
I always deny the faux science democrats like to push.
A vote for any Republican politician is a vote to destroy America and the world
This robot has never been outside.

viva president TRUMP❤
This is sweater weather compared to how hot its gonna get in less than 5 years. Enjoy it while you can still go outside.
Is the sun going to go nova or something?
@@JimmyD806 not for millions of years from now but eventually it’s gonna run out of hydrogen and begin to die but as far as for us in our lifetime you will experience unbearable heat due to global warming from the tipping points that cannot be stopped in relation to the feedback loops of polar ice melt on on both ends of the planet and the melting of permafrost all around the world which contains more Co2 all together than what we have put in our atmosphere ourselves. Which also includes the burning of the Amazon forest also releasing Co2 it’s captured for thousands of years. We can’t refreeze the icebergs that have melted into the ocean which by the way reflect a big portion of the suns heat. Remember, it takes many years for the planet to capture all the green house gases we put in the atmosphere and at this rate there is no stopping climate change. Good luck to you. The best you can hope for is that our kids don’t have children. At least that’s what I’m hoping for.
“Climate Crisis” 💩
Good
This is for all the homeowners, landowners and parents to figure out
How about the homeless
Holocene interglacial: This one started 11,700 years ago. During interglacials, the climate warms, continental and alpine glaciers retreat, sea levels rise, and overall weather patterns change. The current interglacial is one of perhaps 21 interglacials over the last 2.58 million years. Somebody should have thought to warn the democrats.
Thanks Dr
“Science”
They need to stop manipulating the weather to push their agenda
Climate change is here big time.
Summer. I’m on the same planet and last night hit 31 for a low, luckily only losing about 10% of starter crops. Called a passing cold front. Back to 80s+. It’ll be okay.
Its 90 in IN but feels cooler than that.
Maybe the air is dry. Yesterday we had around 62 but the air was wet. We got a bit rain the night before and yesterday it was pretty foggy. I was just sweating from walking 😅
Warning signs from the earth
Warning signs from God. Should not be protesting against Israel across this country. Being Blinded by trumps lies and putting God Last . lovers of money and self . Repent America🙏 it’s going to be a rough season for Americans 😕 .
i mean… it’s almost august. lol
Summer, it’s gonna get hot, does it every year
Some of these comments are just out there….we’re all so effed.
It’s called summer

lots of people dont even know how deep it gets and how unreal this fear mongering bullsh!t is🤣
It’s summer, of course it’s hot. We’ve had severe heatwaves every year as far back as I can remember in my 47 years. It was 100 degrees the day I was born in ’77, in October! It’s obviously time for the left to push the global warming lies again. Operation Mockingbird, go!

Is 73 million, not the amount of voters of the past president , last election?
Here in india it is 120 normal
Shade. Water. Food. Don’t. Look. Back.
In the south, we have a name for this kind of heat. We call it Summer.
Keep it down there
Colorado high today was 76 low of 62 tonight❤. I live in Westminster not in the mountains.
As far as I know that Colorado isn’t on any coast? Especially the gulf stream is pushing warmer water in the north and the clouds can carry more moisture.
@@imtheeastgermanguy5431 I was just commenting on how beautiful the weather was today in Colorado. I’m not a meteorologist. 😂
@@charliec2622 oh sorry. I thought that you was one of those people who live in their own world
The 90s? big friggin deal.
That’s the yearly norm for heat waves, except the 1920s & 30s when it was much hotter.
😂😂😂 EXACTLY!!! BUT THE MEDIA IS DOING WHAT THEY DO BEST!!! PROPAGANDA FOR CLIMATE CHANGE AND PUSH FOR GOING GREEN…. THIS IS A JOKE!!😂😂
bro in new jersey in philly it was 110 thats not normal and it dont matter if its 60 degrees the uv radiation is increasing effecting electricity, planes, and peoples health, how come non so called blacks dont wanna be in the sun no more? yall r in denial
Spraying our skys all day today 🎉with chemtrails. I’m sure it will have nothing to do with trapping the heat. 🔥 This is crimes against humanity 🔥
oh come folks were just in a cycle , it will cool back up. isnt that what they keep telling us?
It’s called summer.
Just wait until blackouts hit the source of the war on fossil fuels and by default our Nation’s electrical grid.
105 cammon, that is normal to us in southeast asia. We still having coffee in the afternoon.
Revelation 16:8-9 prophecy
And here we see the climate change denier brigade, who will keep on denying right until the very end.
us should spend at least one fifth of its own military expenses to contain wild fires
And remember keep paying taxes because our governments are going to fix this 😂
US Military is a huge emitter of greenhouse gasses, yet Alzbiden does nothing but promote conflict around the Globe.
Hello from ireland,Europe, im wearing a fleece lined winter flannel jacket,and am sitting in front of a portable fan heater,l ooking out the window at the rain mist and drizzle,62 degrees with a damp cool sea breeze, enjoy summer,i believe thats what its called.
Its 27 °c in southern India, raining heavily since the monsoon rainy season started.
It’s been 92 daily in Erie Pa, not really as hot as they make it seem
RIGHT!😂😂
It’s summer, more NBC misinformation.
Summers are warmer. Fox will not tell you that.
How is 100*f considered a heatwave?….90*f is cold for us here in Phoenix. It’s 112*f here right now and I’m outside on my daily 5k run
Are you waiting for people visiting Death Valley to one-up you? Not sure how you missed the topic of trends, but every state, country, location is getting warmer.
@@scottekoontz I don’t know if you know this but there’s no city in Death Valley and millions of people don’t live in Death Valley…Phoenix is a massive city in the middle of the desert with 1.644million people living there…..everyone knows AZ is the hottest state for many years….other states are NOW barely starting to get hot….Southwest states are already used to the extreme heat.
@@xiqikxx8967 I think you don’t know this, but by visiting Death Valley you do not make it a city. Did you think I wrote that people lived there? Maybe read my comment slowly. Do you deny that every region is getting warmer? I think you do.
You think global temps are taken only in Phoenix, or only in AZ? You’re one confused person. You didn’t;t even know that AZ temps have been on an upward trend for a century. It’s like you science aliterates know “hot, it’s still hot, it’s been hot before” but have no concept of trend.
@@scottekoontz lol….CHILL out😉🤣
Flowers in Antarktica are blooming ☠️👀
GG game over.
They called it climate change so we’d forget about global warming.
This is the fault of pollution, greenhouse gasses are no joke.
We’re literally turning into a giant oven because that heat can’t escape our atmosphere anymore
Interesting history facts: The GWB administration stopped calling it Global Warming because it bothered and confused conservatives. They changed all official documents to read “Climate Change” because the uneducated could start claiming the “the climate always changes” and feel better about their lack of understanding.
Frank Luntz did the research, told the GWB administration, and the fools followed. He did a lot of damage.
Why was it so hot on this date in 1953 and 1988?
We have had 12 straight months of global warm records. Not just by a slim margin, but by a HUGE HUGE margin. Before the “skeptics” (don’t call them deniers) with their Prager U certificates deny this simple fact, we know that you’d suddenly “agree” or “believe” the 99.9% of science papers if they concluded Earth was cooling. Not sure why deniers think opinions or beliefs matter in a science discussion, but here we are.
One way I naively believed this debate would end was to have the ultimate study set-up where no denier/skeptic could weasel out of the results. This was tried in the 2000-2010s with the BEST program. Started by skeptic scientists, funded by Koch Industries, partnered with Anthony Watts on rural statin comparisons, starting with only raw data and using their own algorithms, and every aspect open to public and academic scrutiny.
Yes, I truly thought the deniers would stop denying. Anthony Watts said he’d agree with their results no matter the outcome, and that little weasel ran away as fact as possible when the results came out. Even one of the skeptic “scientists” ran away from her own work once the results were known.
A toast to weasel Watts and weasel Curry for their ability to deny the facts they helped prove. BEST: Berkeley Earth.
90 that’s a cold front in Texas 😂
Oh wooooow!
Remember God’s creation and believe and pray like Joshua “Joshua 10:12 On the day the LORD gave the Amorites over to Israel, Joshua said to the LORD in the presence of Israel: “Sun, stand still over Gibeon, and you, moon, over the Valley of Aijalon.”
Joshua 10:13 So the sun stood still, and the moon stopped, till the nation avenged itself on its enemies, as it is written in the Book of Jashar. The sun stopped in the middle of the sky and delayed going down about a full day.
Global warming isnt real bro, stop spreading misinformation smh. The media is so overdramatic nowadayas. 🙄
/j
20c in newcastle England
India and China must both stop opening two new coal mines per month, which is the current trajectory for both of them.
Lol 90’s. That’s cool weather in vegas
When conservatives start comparing their location’s temps to Death Valley we know they’re out of silly comparisons.
They laughed at the heatwave in India. Now enjoy America 😂. Europe is next.
I grew up in California, and this just sounds like a normal summer.
The one who said she feels like it is an oven looks like she stayed a little too long in the oven and was over cooked.
Where ever you are make sure drink loads of fluids
100+ degrees – it’s heaven for a residents in Nevada – AZ – NM – Texas – CA >>>
Some ppl complaints too much for what happens in their states but they’re
careless what other states/countries suffer – Deal with it
AZ residents, science alterate sort: 100°F is no big… OK 105°F on this date is no big… well 110°F is a bit much, so… OK OK I finally get it, 115°F is too much.
Kidding about that last part. No science denier will ever admit that the trend is the topic, not some childish “but golly, some places are hot in the summer” idiocy.
32 degrees c ?? Nothing unusual for summer . The Greeks have 45 c every year and don’t hear them moaning!!!
It’s like these science deniers never heard of trends. I wonder how many know about the global records of the past year. Some even compare one region with another as if that makes any sense.
This fire will be less for America, not more. She cannot live in peace while shedding human blood everywhere.
Yes, it’s summer
Global warming is hoax!
Trust President Trump!
I’m sleeping in 🛀 .
We need severe weather from this.
Bull .. Heatwave, what a lie it’s called Vaginitis and testing the government fire setting Laser
Just gotta love the fear mongering media…anything for ratings (and for Biden’s reelection campaign)
Ever noticed how Lester never talks about gas cars being the problem with global warming, because ICE pays for NBC advertising… not Tesla
Meanwhile it’s been lovely in Florida all month with a lovely breeze
What are we being sprayed with to make the fires hotter?????????????
