Over 200 million Americans in the path of record-breaking heat wave

Nearly 260 million Americans across the US will experience above-average temperatures as we close out the weekend and begin a new work week, a far cry from last week when an Arctic blast sent temperatures plummeting from coast to coast.

However, the temperature spike will not be excessive for most people. More than 230 million Americans will be only slightly above normal as we finish the first week of November. But temperature changes will be significant after last week’s record cold temperatures, and some cities could also see record high temperatures.

The hottest temperatures are concentrated in the Highlands and Southwest on Sunday, where widespread 70s and 80s are forecast.

Temperatures will rise during the early work week as warmth spreads eastward and highs soar to 5 to 15 degrees above average for early November.

Temperatures are forecast to reach the 70s and 80s across the southern tier, with Los Angeles, Denver and Albuquerque, New Mexico all enjoying temperatures in the mid-70s.

Midland, Texas and Dallas in the southern Plains will flirt with 80 degrees on Sunday, with temperatures reaching the low 70s in the central Plains, such as Wichita, Kansas.

Omaha, Nebraska, will enter the mid-60s on Sunday, and after last week’s frigid temperatures, this is a welcome warm-up.

Warmer-than-average temperatures will continue to push east into the start of the work week, with potential for record heat in the Southwest and on the Plains.

With high temperatures in the upper 80s expected in Texas, cities like El Paso and Lubbock could break records. Dallas and Houston will jump into the low to mid 80s. Little Rock, Arkansas, could also break the record with a forecast high of 82 degrees.
