TEXAS - A teenage boy and his stepfather hiking in Big Bend National Park in Texas died as temperatures there rose to 48.3 deg C on Friday – the second-highest reading ever recorded in the state – during a heat wave that was forecast to spread to the south-east this week.
By Monday, most power had been restored and temperatures had dropped, but they were expected to climb again later this week. The man was hiking in Big Bend with his two stepsons in the late afternoon on Friday, park officials said in a statement, when the younger stepson, who was 14, lost consciousness. His brother, 21, tried to carry the boy back to the trailhead while the stepfather rushed to his vehicle to seek help.
