tЯump gets his wish of a Яed Ameяika

But not in the way he would like it. All lower 48 states recorded the hottest May-June-July average temperatures in recorded history.

If you found yourself thinking it was scorching hot in recent weeks, well, you were right.

In July, the aptly-named Furnace Creek in Death Valley “reached a high temperature of 127 degrees F four days in a row.”
