As the United States experiences an early summer heatwave, with temperatures soaring well above 32 degrees Celsius and hitting even 40 degrees in some cities, the 911 emergency system in Massachusetts temporarily crashed due to the extreme heat, causing a two-hour outage. As New York City also faces high temperatures and extreme humidity, leading to poor air quality and an ozone alert, approximately 70 million Americans are forecasted to be exposed to the scorching heat this week. Boston has declared a state of emergency due to the heatwave, urging residents to take precautions and seek help if needed during this extreme weather event.
