Extreme heat kills and the patterns of extreme heat can differ even between neighborhoods. This summer @NOAA and partners are mapping urban heat and #heat inequities in cities in 11 states.

A heat wave in Siberia, including the Siberian Arctic, has vaulted temperatures in that region higher into unprecedented territory. Yday, Khatanga, Siberia, well north of the Arctic Circle, reached 78 F, 46 degrees above normal for a new May record. washingtonpost.com/weather/2…
