A heat wave that baked much of the central United States last week will start to move eastward with dangerously high temperatures, forecasters said Monday.
The National Weather Service told Americans to gird for another day of well above normal, near-record or even record-breaking heat from the central Plains to the Upper Midwest.The scorching blast will start to drift eastward Tuesday into the Great Lakes region with highs in the upper 90s Fahrenheit -- which is up to 20 degrees F above normal.
This stemmed from what forecasters called a dome of high pressure, with wild weather such as thunderstorms, flash flooding and extreme rainfall erupting around its edges. Torrential rainfall and snowmelt sent months' worth of run-off into rivers in just a couple of days. The sprawling park sits mainly in Wyoming and is home to the Old Faithful geyser.The park said its southern section will reopen to visitors on Wednesday, but officials say other parts will remain closed for the rest of the season.
