Heat Wave Builds in US Northwest, All-Time Records Fall

(Worthy News) – Forecasters say many Pacific Northwest communities may sweat through the hottest days in their histories as temperatures soar during a heatwave that has sent residents scrambling for relief.

Portland, Oregon reached 42.2° C (108° F) Saturday afternoon, according to the National Weather Service. The previous heat record for Oregon’s largest city was 41.7° C (107° F), a mark hit in 1965 and 1981.

Seattle reached 38.3° C (101° F) Saturday, making it the hottest June day on record and only the fourth time in recorded history the usually temperate city had topped 100 degrees. [ Source: VOA News (Read More…) ]
