A historic heat wave in Texas is set to make much of the state hotter than 99% of the world. The heat index value will reach as high as 115 degrees in some areas.
According to KXAS-TV, the heat index value will reach as high as 115 degrees in some areas. The extreme temperatures have prompted the National Weather Service in Fort Worth to issue an excessive heat advisory for the northern part of the state. Residents are asked to take precautionary measures to shield themselves from the worst effects of the heat."An Excessive Heat Warning remains in effect until 8 PM Wednesday," the warning read.
Ben Noll, a meteorologist with New Zealand’s National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research, announced last week that the temperatures would make Texas one of the hottest places on Earth."Next Wednesday, large parts of Texas will be hotter than 99% of the planet during the peak of the heatwave," he tweeted."Widespread temperatures of 110˚F or higher are forecast. Only the Sahara Desert & Persian Gulf area will be as hot or hotter ... than the Lone Star State.
