While Texas is suffering from floods, California residents exhausted from the heat. Saturday in some regions of the state the temperature has risen above 41°C — the weather forecasters assure us that this is not the limit.
A record heat wave will cover the Golden state on Sunday, and at least until the environment here will last a hell of a fever.
The hottest weather is expected in palm springs (45-46°C), lake Elsinore (43-44°C), riverside (44°C), San Bernardino (43.5°C), Thermal (45°C), Ontario and Borrego springs (43°C). It is a bit cooler in Santa Ana (40°C) and Los Angeles (36°C).

Forecasters warned that extremely high temperatures can cause heat stroke. In the area of special risk — Ontario, San Bernardino, riverside, Hemet, lake Elsinore, palm springs. To prevent negative consequences to health, the locals recommend:
- to drink more water
- do not leave the house without a hat
- to refuse to stay on the street from 10:00 to 16:00
- closely monitor children, elderly relatives and Pets — in any case, not leaving them on their cars
- in the presence of air conditioning, because in this heat the fans and open Windows will help cool the room.
