More than 200 million Americans in the path of an unprecedented heat wave

Nearly 260 million Americans across the United States will feel 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 increase in temperatures will not be excessive for most. More than 230 million Americans will be only slightly above normal as we end the first week of November. But the change in temperatures will be noticeable after last week’s record cold temperatures, and some cities could also see record temperatures.

The warmest temperatures were concentrated in the High Plains and Southwest on Sunday, where 70s to 80s are forecast to be widespread.

Temperatures will rise during the first work week as heat spreads eastward and highs jump 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, enjoying temperatures in the mid-70s.

Midland, Texas, and Dallas in the Southern Plains will flirt with 80 degrees on Sunday, with temperatures reaching 70 degrees in the Central Plains, such as Wichita, Kansas.

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

With high temperatures above 80 degrees expected in Texas, cities like El Paso and Lubbock could break records. Dallas and Houston will jump to 80 degrees. Little Rock, Arkansas, could also break a record with a predicted high of 82 degrees.
