Eastern half of U.S. braces for more long days of dangerous heat

The National Weather Service says tens of millions of people across the Midwest and East should brace for another sweltering day of dangerously hot temperatures as a rare June heat wave grips parts of the U.S. Most of the northeastern quadrant of the country from Minnesota to Maine was under some type of heat advisory Sunday. So were parts of Arkansas, Tennessee, Louisiana and Mississippi. Sunday marked the second straight day of extreme heat across the Midwest and East Coast. Heat indices on Saturday hit 103 F (39.4 C) in Chicago and 101 F (38.3 C) in Madison, Wisconsin, turning that city’s annual naked bike ride into a sticky and sweaty affair.
