The West will get a small break from record-breaking heat, while much of the Midwest and the East Coast swelter into next week.

It was 85 F on my back patio.

It hardly ever gets above 70 here on the Lost Coast.

It was 110 just a few minutes over the hill (east). The breeze from the ocean stopped completely for a few days. Our air quality went to crap for a whole day! (Air quality is never bad here unless there are wildfires near) Now all that heat is finally moving east.

I wish you all good luck with it.

... while much of the Midwest and the East Coast swelter into next week. ...

Here in CT, we've been "sweltering" since June, with afternoon temps running 10 to 20 degrees above the norm and tropical-level dew points. Looks like we're finally going to get a 3 day respite the end of this coming week, then back to the heat.

June averaged 5 degrees above normal.
