A heat dome and "corn sweat" are driving this week's dangerous heat wave
A heat dome — plus the "corn sweat" phenomenon in some areas — is bringing dangerous levels of heat and humidity to much of the country east of the Rockies this week. Why it matters: Heat warnings and advisories stretch from Louisiana and the Florida panhandle up to Chicago and beyond as of Tuesday afternoon, covering nearly 85 million Americans. Driving the news: The main driver is hot, moist air being drawn up from the Atlantic and trapped by a high pressure ridge. Also contributing in some places: "Corn sweat," wherein vast amounts of growing corn and other produce give off moisture through evapotranspiration, further increasing humidity levels in and around agricultural zones. "While corn sweat is never the main reason for major heat," Axios Des Moines' Linh Ta wrote back in 2023, "it can add to it." What they're saying: " This is the time of the year when humidity contributions from corn sweat are highest — around the time of tasseling and pollination, when the flower emerges from the corn stalk," as Iowa state climatologist Justin Glisan told the Washington Post. Zoom in: Conditions could be particularly brutal in Chicago, where the local National Weather Service office is warning of heat indices over 105°F for Wednesday and Thursday. High humidity is especially dangerous, as Axios' Tina Reed and Natalie Daher recently reported, disrupting our bodies' ability to regulate temperatures. Threat level: Long-duration heat waves can be particularly serious events, with warm evenings offering less of a reprieve and extreme heat having a cumulative effect on our health. Extreme heat is the most deadly weather event in the U.S., and research has shown that human-driven climate change is making such events both more intense and more frequent. What they're saying: " Drink plenty of fluids, stay in an air-conditioned room, stay out of the sun, and check up on relatives and neighbors," the NWS Milwaukee office advises.

Waterspout seen on video near Island Beach State Park in New Jersey
You don't see these every day! At least one waterspout was spotted on video near Island Beach State Park on Tuesday morning. Video posted on Instagram by fisherman Matthew Farrell shows heavy cloud cover and a funnel stretching down to the water and then appearing to continue inland or into the Barnegat Bay. The National Weather Service estimated the waterspout happened around 10:38 a.m. per radar readings. Waterspouts are normally relatively weak compared to a tornado, but can still cause some damage along the beach or flip boats. It wasn't clear if the waterspout made it ashore; if it did, it would technically be defined as a tornado.

Map Shows Florida Cities Facing 'Brutal' Heat Wave Temperatures
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Florida is facing widespread temperatures in the high 80s into the 90s on Tuesday, according to forecasters, as a summer heat wave is expected to grip swaths of the U.S. Why It Matters According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), extreme heat can lead to heat-related illnesses, especially in older adults, young children and those with chronic medical conditions. Symptoms may include heavy sweating, muscle cramps, dizziness and nausea. The CDC says more than 700 people die each year in the U.S. because of extreme heat. Additionally, rising temperatures can worsen ground-level ozone pollution, which presents additional health risks. What To Know According to forecasts from the National Weather Service (NWS), high temperatures on Tuesday could reach up to 96 degrees Fahrenheit in Tallahassee. Crestview, Pensacola and Panama City were forecast for highs of 98, 95, and 93 degrees, respectively. Jacksonville could see 94 degrees, while Gainesville could see 93, the agency said. Meanwhile, temperatures in both Tampa and Orlando were expected to peak at 91. Moving south, Port St. Lucie, Naples and Cape Coral could see highs of 91, while Palm Beach was forecast for 87 degrees. Miami and Fort Lauderdale were forecast, respectively, for highs of 88 and 91 on Tuesday. Beachgoers enjoy sunbathing during a heat wave in Miami Beach on July 16, 2023.

Giorgio Viera/AFP via Getty Images Northern parts of the state, including the Florida Panhandle, were under a heat advisory from the NWS on Tuesday, with the agency expecting heat index values—which measure how hot it feels when both temperature and humidity are considered—to reach the triple-digit threshold. "Drink plenty of fluids, stay in an air-conditioned room, stay out of the sun, and check up on relatives and neighbors," the NWS advised. What People Are Saying AccuWeather meteorologist Kai Kerkow told Newsweek: "The warmest conditions will be over the Florida Panhandle and northern Florida Peninsula, where heat advisories are in place and high temperatures are expected to be in the mid- to upper-90s today." Kerkow added: "The extreme heat should come to an end by tomorrow with the return of widespread showers and thunderstorms developing across the state. It does look like the heat will return late in the week." Meteorologist Matt Devitt wrote on X on Monday: "Southwest Florida reached 98 degrees in Punta Gorda today, hottest of the year so far. They also had a brutal heat index of 115 degrees, 2nd highest on record for the city." The National Weather Service forecast office in Tallahassee wrote on X on Tuesday: "One more hot day. Heat indices will reach 105-112 degrees Fahrenheit this afternoon. Scattered storms develop later; an isolated damaging wind gust is possible. Relief is coming later this week as higher rain chances and cooler temps arrive for Wed/Thurs. Stay cool & hydrated!" What Happens Next The NWS issues regular forecast updates on its website.
