The National Weather Service issued warnings of dangerously high temperatures as a heat wave intensifies in California and the southwestern United States. Los Angeles is expected to reach scorching temperatures, with parts of the city possibly hitting 48 degrees Celsius.
The increased heat poses a significant wildfire risk in rural areas surrounding Los Angeles, attributed to human-induced climate change. While heat waves are common in the desert landscapes of the Southwest, experts link the severity of these weather patterns to climate change, leading to more frequent and intense wildfires.
In parallel, southeastern Australia experienced temperature surges and strong winds, causing challenges in NSW and Victoria. Despite the turbulent weather, a calmer weekend is anticipated in most areas, except for above-average temperatures persisting in parts of Queensland and northeastern NSW.
