Central Pennsylvania is experiencing an intense heat wave. Compared to other years, the heat is hitting the area particularly early.
The heat wave could last through at least Saturday --with temperatures reaching the high 90s. So, what's the connection to global warming?
The region is under a heat advisory through Saturday. The hot temperatures can lead to poor sleep, cardiac and respiratory stress, and heat exhaustion. A majority of heat related deaths are caused by *indoor* heat exposure.
