On Sunday, temperatures in Las Vegas hit 120 degrees for the first time in recorded history, according to preliminary data from the weather service.
Dalia Faheid, Monica Garrett and Brandon Miller, CNNHundreds of new temperature records could be broken into next week as sweltering heat drags on across the country, impacting millions of Americans in the Western and Eastern US.
In more than 32,000 days of records, the temperature had never climbed above 117 degrees prior to Sunday.Las Vegas temperatures have exceeded 110 degrees each day since July 3 and are forecast to do so every day until at least next Sunday. That will mark a stretch of prolonged extreme heat longer than any ever experienced in the city, with 11 days or more above 110 degrees.
An excessive heat warning is in effect until late Wednesday evening for Death Valley, California, where temperatures are expected to be between 122 to 129 degrees. Elsewhere in the state, Owens Valley could reach 111 degrees, and Barstow could reach 118. In Nevada, Las Vegas and Pahrump could also reach 118 degrees.
Extreme heat is one of the leading weather-related killers in the United States, leaving hundreds of people dead each year, according to the weather service. In the West, the heat wave is expected to expand into the Great Basin and eventually the northern High Plains into next week. It's likely to remain into mid-July, according to the weather service.Intense heat, paired with dry windy conditions, is bringing a critical risk of wildfires to parts of the upper Great Basin toward the Four Corners for the rest of the weekend. Portions of southern Idaho and southern Utah are particularly at risk.
